On February 27, 2026, the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) made a preliminary determination of dumping and subsidizing with respect to imports of certain thermoformed molded fibre tableware originating in or exported from China.
As a result of the determination, provisional SIMA duties are now payable on imports of subject goods that were released from Customs on or after February 27, 2026. The provisional rates are provided in the CBSA’s preliminary determination below.
The Canadian International Tribunal (CITT) will now initiate an inquiry to determine whether the dumping and subsidizing of the subject goods have caused injury or are threatening to cause injury to domestic producers. A decision by the CITT is expected on June 26, 2026.
