The Commission stated that the initial anti-dumping duties of 13.17 to 19.04 percent were imposed on January 13, 2016 for a period of five years, covering flat rolled products with a thickness of 0.15 to 3.00 mm and a width of up to 1,250 mm, and then extended for another five years.
According to the commission, the new complaint led to the launch of a bypass investigation aimed at slightly modified products - in particular, flat steel products in the same thickness range, but with a width exceeding 1,250 mm.
The Commission reported that its investigation led to an affirmative final determination, concluding that such changes were used to circumvent existing anti-dumping measures, thereby undermining their effectiveness.
Based on its findings, the commission stated that it had decided to extend the existing anti-dumping duties to imports of CR rolls and sheets with a width of more than 1,250 mm. The ministry stressed that this step is intended to prevent further circumvention and restore the effectiveness of trade protection measures.
The products in question are in accordance with the following commodity items of the Pakistan Customs Tariff 7209.1510,
