The Ministry of Commerce announced the preliminary ruling on the anti-dumping investigation of white feather broiler products in the United States and decided to take temporary anti-dumping measures against it. The United States took the time to rush, and immediately stated that it imposed a higher anti-dumping duty of more than 231% on the gift boxes and packaging ribbons of China's domestic real estate. As soon as the news came out, Sino-US trade relations were quietly tense.
“The US responding company was ruled that the dumping margin ranged from 43.1% to 80.5%, and the unspoken company’s dumping margin was 105.4%.” On Friday, the Ministry of Commerce ruled that there was dumping of white feather broiler products from the United States, and the domestic white feather broiler industry was affected. Substantial damage. According to the ruling, since February 13th, when importing white feather broiler products originating in the United States, import operators should provide corresponding guarantees to China Customs according to the dumping margins of the companies determined by the preliminary ruling.
On August 14 last year, the Ministry of Commerce received an application for anti-dumping investigation submitted by the China Animal Husbandry Association on behalf of the domestic white feather broiler industry. The result of the ruling made the domestic broiler manufacturer long waited for nearly half a year to breathe a sigh of relief.
But then, reports from overseas media made Sino-US trade relations tense. According to the news, the US Department of Commerce said that due to the extremely low price of gift boxes and packaging ribbon products in China's domestic real estate, anti-dumping duties are imposed, with a higher tax rate of 231%. For Taiwan, the country with a larger source of ribbons, the tax rate is only 4.54%.
This can not help but remind people of the strong friction between Sino-US trade in September last year. On September 12, US President Barack Obama made a final ruling on the US tire special insurance case. The next day, the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China announced that it had initiated anti-dumping and countervailing filing review procedures for some imported auto products and broiler products originating in the United States in accordance with Chinese laws and WTO rules. Unlike last year, this time the United States has taken follow-up measures.
According to industry insiders, the production of gift boxes and ribbons in China is mainly on the southeast coast, and most of Taiwan's producers have also moved to the mainland. Once such a high anti-dumping duty is imposed, most domestic exporters will completely abandon the US market.
Last year, some trade experts predicted that after the financial crisis, China would face increasingly frequent trade remedy investigations and trade protection measures because developed countries could not really solve domestic employment problems. Therefore, the US side responded to the Chinese side with gift boxes and ribbons. It was not an emergency, but a beginning.
