Canada Makes Duty Determination on Corrosion Resistant Steel Imports from Turkey, UAE & Vietnam
Canada Border Services Agency terminated the dumping investigation with respect to certain corrosion resistant steel sheet originating in or exported from Turkey by Borcelik Sanayi Ticaret AS and originating in or exported from the United Arab Emirates by Al Ghurair Iron & Steel LLC, as they did not have margins of dumping. The CBSA also terminated the subsidy investigation with respect to certain corrosion resistant steel sheet originating in or exported from Turkey by Atakas Celik Sanayi ve Ticaret AS, Borçelik and Tatmetal Celik Sanayi Ve Ticaret AS and originating in or exported from the United Arab Emirates and Vietnam by all exporters, as there was no subsidizing or the amounts of subsidy were insignificant. On the same day, the CBSA has made a final determination of dumping concerning certain corrosion resistant steel sheet originating in or exported from Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and Vietnam, and a final determination of subsidizing with respect to certain corrosion resistant steel sheet originating in or exported from Turkey.
