This memorandum refers to the application of anti-dumping and countervailing duty, pursuant to section 3 of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), to importations of refined sugar from certain countries. Refined sugar originating in or exported from the United States of America, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom is subject to anti-dumping duty. Refined sugar originating in or exported from the European Union is subject to countervailing duty. These duties are applied as a result of orders made by the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (Tribunal) that the dumping and subsidizing of these goods are threatening to cause material injury to the domestic industry.

1. The anti-dumping duty rate is revised to 180% for all exporters without specific normal values.
2. The countervailing duty rate is revised to EUR 24.39 per 100 kilogram as a result of the re-investigation.
3. The applicable Harmonized System classification numbers have been updated.
4. A new “Additional Information” section has been added to provide contact details for the CBSA’s Border Information Service.
