Vietnam’s upholstered furniture subject to Canadian anti-dumping duties
Hanoi (VNA) – Certain upholstered domestic seating
originating from Vietnam and China now is subject to anti-dumping duties in
Canada, according to the Ministry of Industry and Trade’s Trade Remedies
Authority of Vietnam (TRAV).
Citing a preliminary determination of dumping released by
the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) earlier this week, the TRAV said
provisional duties will be collected on the subject goods that are released
from customs on or after May 5, 2021.
Estimated amount
of subsidy has been decided to be 0 percent for seven Vietnamese manufacturers,
including Delancey Street Furniture Vietnam,
Timberland, Motomotion Vietnam, UE Vietnam, Vietnam Hang
Phong Furniture, Wendelbo Interiors A/S and Wendelbo SEA, and
11.73 percent for all other exporters in the country.
The seven producers will receive separate anti-dumping duty rates ranging
from 17.44 percent to 89.77 percent while all others get 101.5 percent.
The CBSA is requesting Vietnamese manufacturers to answer
additional questions for the final determination.
The TRAV has urged the concerned exporters to keep a close watch
on the case and fully cooperate with the CBSA during its investigation. They
must also closely coordinate with the TRAV to receive timely support./.
