Stainless steel anti-dumping due to expire January 2017 17 May 2016

The European Commission issued notice of the impending expiry of the anti-dumping measures on certain stainless steel fasteners from People’s Republic of China, Taiwan and the Philippines. EU manufacturers have until October to lodge a request for an expiry review.

Notice 2016/C 131/06 confirms the measures imposed by Council Regulation 2/2012 and extended to the Philippines by Regulation 205/2013 are due to expire on 8th January 2017.

As normal, the notice offers EU manufacturers the opportunity to lodge a written request for an expiry review, which if accepted would result in the prolongation of the measures while that review is conducted. Manufacturers have until early October (i.e. three months before the expiry date) to lodge a detailed request, which must contain sufficient evidence that removal of the measures would result in continuation or recurrence of dumping or injury.
