For example, Chinese company Jiangsu Shagang faces a 34.0% duty, while other Chinese companies are subject to 46.2%. Egyptian company Suez Steel faces an 8.6% duty, while other Egyptian companies are subject to 21.3%.CBSA sets final anti-dumping rates with Vietnam lower than othersNext steps for Canada and VietnamThe Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) continues to investigate whether these imports have caused significant damage to Canada's domestic industry and will issue a conclusion by October 4, 2024. If the CITT does not find any evidence of injury, the case will be dismissed.Given this situation, the Trade Remedies Authority of Vietnam recommends that exporting companies register as parties involved in the case to receive necessary information and respond within the stipulated timeframe. Businesses are also advised to closely coordinate with the trade remedies authority to receive timely support and protect their interests.According to statistics from Trademap, Vietnam's export turnover of wire rod products to Canada has increased significantly in recent years, from USD 10 million in 2020 to USD 21 million in 2021, reaching approximately USD 40 million in 2022. This growth demonstrates the competitiveness of Vietnam's steel industry while posing significant challenges in dealing with increasingly strict trade remedy measures from Canada.As Canada intensifies its monitoring and regulation of steel imports to protect its domestic market, it is expected that further investigations and anti-dumping duties will be imposed on other steel products from Vietnam in the near future.
