According to the website of the Ministry of Commerce, on May 12, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced that it had filed an independent case to investigate whether China ’s Stainless Steel Sheet and Strip (Stainless Steel Sheet and Strip) circumvented US anti-dumping and anti-subsidy measures against China through simple processing in Vietnam. This case involves products under the US Harmonized Tariff Numbers 7219.13.0031, 7219.13.0051, and 7219.13.0071.
The U.S. Department of Commerce announced that it will begin an investigation of possible anti-dumping and countervailing duty (CVD) orders on stainless steel strip and strip from China. Possible circumvention measures involve stainless steel flat steel products imported from China, which are produced in Vietnam and then exported to the United States.
According to US law, when there is evidence that goods subject to an existing AD / CVD order are completed or assembled in a third country from parts imported from the country subject to the order, the Ministry of Commerce may conduct an evasion investigation.
