On February 24, 2020, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT), pursuant to subsection 76.03(3) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), initiated an expiry review of its finding made on April 2, 2015, in Inquiry No. NQ‑2014‑002, concerning the dumping of certain oil country tubular goods originating or exported from the Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu (Chinese Taipei), India, Indonesia, the Philippines, South Korea, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine and Vietnam.
As a result, on February 25, 2020, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) initiated an expiry review investigation to determine whether the expiry of the finding is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of the subject goods.
The investigation has now been completed and today, pursuant to paragraph 76.03(7)(a) of SIMA, the CBSA has determined that the expiry of the finding:
- is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of such goods originating in or exported from the Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu (Chinese Taipei), India, Indonesia, South Korea, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine and Vietnam; and
- is unlikely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of such goods originating in or exported from the Philippines.
A Statement of Reasons will be issued within 15 days and will be posted on the CBSA’s website at: https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/sima-lmsi/er-rre/menu-eng.html.
The CITT will now conduct an inquiry to determine whether the expiry of its finding is likely to result in injury to the Canadian industry, and has announced that it will issue its decision no later than December 30, 2020.
