Vietnam’s Trade Remedies Authority (TRAV) reported that Thailand’s Department of Foreign Trade has published a gazette announcing the start of an anti-dumping investigation into cold-rolled stainless steel products originating from or imported from Vietnam.
The plaintiff is Posco-Thainox Public Company Limited.
The TRAV recommended that the Vietnam Steel Association (VSA) and related manufacturing and exporting enterprises register to participate and ask the investigating agency to provide the questionnaire and related documents, carefully study the notice of initiation, the request file and related documents, and request the investigating agency to clarify and explain the suspicious contents.
At the same time, TRAV also recommended businesses and groups cooperate fully with the investigating agency throughout the entire process to avoid being designated as non-cooperative or incompletely cooperative, which can often lead to higher tax rates.
The authority also recommended firms ensure compliance with the instructions, procedures and prescribed deadlines, and maintain contact and coordination with TRAV to receive timely support.
