Malaysia to start AD probe on tin-plated steel imports
Malaysia has decided to start an anti-dumping (AD) investigation on tin-plated steel imports from China, India, Japan and South Korea following a petition from a domestic producer.
The government had received a petition from the producer on 15 July that alleged imports of flat-rolled iron or non-alloy steel clad, plated or coated with tin (electrolytic tinplate or tinplate), of a width of 600mm and above, from the four countries were causing injury to Malaysia's domestic industry.
A preliminary finding will be made within 120 days from the date of investigation in accordance with the Countervailing and Anti-dumping Duties Act 1993 and the Countervailing and Anti-Dumping Duties Regulations 1994, according to a document published by Malaysia's Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) on 15 August.
If the preliminary finding is affirmative, the government will impose a provisional AD duty at the rate that is necessary to prevent further injury to the domestic industry.
