The Anti-Dumping Commission of Australia has recommended that the Minister of Industry, Science and Resources revokes the duties applying to deep drawn stainless steel sinks exported to Australia from China, Kallanish learns.
The products are generally classified under HS code 7324.10.00.52. Stainless steel sinks with fabricated bowls are excluded from the goods covered.
The statement of essential facts claims that “the Commissioner is not satisfied that the expiry of the measures would lead, or be likely to lead to a continuation of, or a recurrence of, dumping and the material injury that the measures are intended to prevent.”
If the Minister accepts the recommendation, the decision to end the AD duties will take effect from 26 March 2025.
However, importers that have paid interim or final duties in relation to the dumping duty notice on and after 25 June 2024 would be eligible for a refund.
He Yadong, spokesman for China's Ministry of Commerce, said: "China believes that Australia's termination of the measure will be conducive to deepening economic and trade cooperation between the two countries and achieving mutual benefit and win-win results."
