Notice of conclusion of review of final determinations of dumping of OCTG 2 & HRSP 7

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has concluded on August 7, 2020, its review of the final determinations of dumping on certain oil country tubular goods (OCTG 2) originating or exported from Korea and Turkey and on certain hot-rolled steel plate (HRSP 7) originating in or exported from Korea.

The CBSA is continuing its final determination of dumping on both subject goods with the following amendments:

  1. The termination of the dumping investigation regarding OCTG exported from Korea by Hyundai Steel Company (formerly Hyundai Hysco Co. Ltd.) and OCTG exported from Turkey by Borusan Mannesmann Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş (Borusan).
  2. The termination of the dumping investigation regarding HRSP exported from Korea by Hyundai Steel Company (Hyundai Steel).

As a result of the CBSA’s decisions, anti-dumping duty will no longer apply to exports to Canada of OCTG by Hyundai Steel in Korea and Bourusan in Turkey as well as exports of HRSP to Canada from Hyundai Steel in Korea.

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) is continuing its review into the question of injury to the domestic industry. The CITT will make its decisions by September 28, 2020 respecting OCTG and by October 14, 2020 respecting HRSP.

If the CITT reaffirms its threat of injury findings, OCTG (excluding those goods exported by Hyundai Steel and Borusan) and HRSP (excluding those goods exported by Hyundai Steel) will continue to be subject to anti‑dumping duties. If the CITT rescinds its threat of injury findings in whole or in part, such imports will no longer be subject to anti‑dumping duties
