Canada announces anti-dumping results on steel strapping imports from 4 countries including Türkiye

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has also determined a subsidy rate for products originating from China.

According to the reasoned decision published by the CBSA, the estimated dumping margins were set at 4.1% for Turkey, 12% for China, 19.2% for South Korea, and 10.5% for Vietnam. The estimated subsidy margin for products from China was determined to be 6.5%.

The investigation process was initiated following a complaint filed by Canada-based JEM Strapping Systems Inc. (JEM). The company claimed that low-priced imports from the aforementioned countries were causing significant price pressure in the Canadian market, resulting in a loss of market share for domestic producers, a decline in sales revenue, and job losses.

In addition to the CBSA, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) was also involved in the process and announced that it would complete its preliminary determination on whether the investigation is causing injury to Canadian industry by July 11, 2025.

The products subject to the investigation are classified under the following HS codes:
7212.20.00.30, 7212.30.00.10, 7212.30.00.30, 7212.40.00.10, 7212.40.00.29, 7212.40.00.90, 7212.50.00.50, 7212.60.00.00, 7217.10.00.55, 7217.20.00.10, 7217.30.00.10, 7226.99.00.93, 7312.90.00.00, and 7326.20.00.00.
