China Tire Enterprise complaint against the U.S. Department of Commerce Anti-dumping Tax case

The U.S. Department of Commerce's decision to levy anti-dumping and countervailing duties on Chinese tyre companies was dismissed by the U.S. International Trade Tribunal August 4.　　This landmark verdict will greatly inspire China's steel and paper-making enterprises, which face the same American anti-dumping punishment.　　US International Trade Tribunal Judge Jane Restani 4th in the case of Chinese tire companies to sue the U.S. Department of Commerce double Taxation, the U.S. Department of Commerce's decision to levy anti-dumping duties and countervailing duty on domestic tyres was found to be illegal.　　According to the verdict, the U.S. Department of Commerce regarded China as a "non-market economy country" and the decision to levy anti-dumping and countervailing duties on Chinese tyres constituted double taxation.　　The ruling also cites information from the General administration of Metrology that the U.S. Department of Commerce usually takes Indian tyres as a reference price against China's anti-dumping duty rate, higher than the reference to France, Canada and other countries price tax rates.　　In his verdict, the judge noted that the US Department of Commerce had clearly demonstrated that it could not clearly state whether there was double taxation and how much the tax rate was on double taxation. According to the Beijing "Legal Evening News" 6th quoted the case of the Chinese lawyer Daniel Potter said the case won not only for the tire companies, for other Chinese exporters will also become a very important case, because the U.S. Department of Commerce in many similar cases of Chinese products are also used in this way.　　The ruling will have a demonstrative effect on the direction of these similar cases.　　The report said Porter expected the U.S. Department of Commerce or related U.S. companies to appeal to the US Court of Appeal. In July 2008, after nearly a year of anti-dumping investigations, the U.S. Department of Commerce ruled that China's imported construction machinery tires had unfair competition and levied anti-dumping and countervailing duties ranging from 7.7% to 43.93% for Chinese companies. The case of Hebei Hing Mao Company, Tianjin United Tire Rubber Company and other companies in the same year to the United States International Trade Court lawsuit, challenged the U.S. Department of Commerce Anti-dumping decision.
