The Canada Border Services Agency is launching investigations into claims of injurious dumping of certain carbon steel welded pipe from Chinese Taipei, India, Oman, South Korea, Thailand, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates. The CBSA is also investigating claims of subsidizing of carbon steel welded pipe from India, Oman and the UAE.

The investigations follow a complaint filed by Novamerican Steel Inc. of Montreal and Bolton Steel Tube Co. Ltd. of Bolton, Ont. The complainants allege that the dumping and subsidizing of these goods are harming Canadian production by causing price suppression, lost market share, lost sales, reduced capacity utilization, reduced profits and reduction in employment.

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal will begin an injury inquiry to determine whether the imports are harming Canadian producers, and will render its preliminary findings on July 13. While the tribunal is examining the question of injury, the border services agency will launch a preliminary investigation into whether the imports are being dumped or subsidized, and will make a preliminary decision by Aug. 13.

If the tribunal determines that an unusually large increase in harmful imports occurred prior to the border services agency’s decision, and that the retroactive application of antidumping or countervailing duty is therefore justified, duty could be levied on the goods brought into Canada as of the date the investigation was launched.
