The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has concluded a re investigation to update the normal values and export prices respecting certain concrete reinforcing bar (rebar) originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China (China), the Republic of Korea and the Republic of Turkey (Rebar 1), and originating in or exported from the Republic of Belarus (Belarus), Chinese Taipei, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, Japan, the Portuguese Republic and the Kingdom of Spain (Rebar 2), and the amounts of subsidy of certain rebar originating in or exported from China.
The product definitions as well as additional product information and the applicable tariff classification numbers of the goods subject to the CITT’s findings are contained in Appendix 1 (subject goods).
Normal Values for Future Shipments – Rebar 1
Exporters (Rebar 1) that have received specific normal values effective May 4, 2018.
For all other exporters of subject goods originating in or exported from China, the Republic of Korea and the Republic of Turkey (Rebar 1), normal values will be determined by ministerial specification. The normal values for future shipments determined by ministerial specification are calculated by advancing the export price of the goods by 41%, pursuant to section 29 of SIMA.
In the case of China, given that neither the GOC, nor any exporters/manufacturers in China provided a response to the Subsidy RFI, an amount of subsidy for all exporters of goods originating in or exported from China will be determined by ministerial specification, pursuant to subsection 30.4(2) of SIMA and is equal to 469 Chinese Renminbi per metric tonne.
Normal Values for Future Shipments – Rebar 2
Specific normal values for future shipments of certain rebar have been determined for all exporters that submitted a complete response to the Dumping RFI, to the Supplemental RFIs and for whom the desk and/or on-site verification was considered reliable.
Exporters (Rebar 2) that have received specific normal values effective May 4, 2018
For all other exporters of subject goods originating in or exported from Belarus, Chinese Taipei, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China, Japan, the Portuguese Republic and the Kingdom of Spain (Rebar 2), normal values will be determined by ministerial specification. The normal values for future shipments determined by ministerial specification are calculated by advancing the export price of the goods by 108.5%, pursuant to section 29 of SIMA.
Importers are reminded that it is their responsibility to calculate and declare their anti dumping and countervailing duty liability. If importers are using the services of a customs broker to clear importations, the brokerage firm should be advised that the goods are subject to SIMA measures and be provided with sufficient information necessary to clear the shipments.
