Government of Canada initiates expiry review concerning hot-rolled carbon steel plate 6

January 10, 2020 – The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) initiated an expiry review on January 6, 2020, of its order made on January 30, 2015, concerning the dumping of certain hot-rolled carbon steel plate originating in or exported from Ukraine.

As a result of the CITT’s expiry review, on January 7, 2020, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) initiated an expiry review investigation to determine whether the expiry of the above finding is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping and/or subsidizing of the subject goods.

The CBSA will make a determination no later than June 4, 2020 and will issue a Statement of Reasons by June 19, 2020.

For a detailed product description of the subject goods including exclusions, as well as the tariff classifications, please refer to the Measures in Force.

As part of its expiry review investigation, the CBSA has forwarded questionnaires to Canadian producers, importers and exporters. Any Canadian producers, importers or exporters who have not received a letter and wish to provide a response to the questionnaire or have additional questions concerning the expiry review are advised to contact:
