The Customs Tariff Commission of China has decided to levy antidumping duties on the toluidine originating in the EU for five years from June 28, 2013.
Relevant matters are hereby announced:
1. As of June 28, 2013, as regards the EU toluidine under HS Code 29214300, China Customs shall levy antidumping duties and import value-added tax (VAT) besides existing import duties, by differentiating between suppliers, as per the appropriate rates listed in the Annex 2 hereto and the calculation formula below:
Antidumping Duty Amount = customs duty-paid value × antidumping duty rate;
Import VAT Amount = (customs duty-paid value + import duty + antidumping duty) × import VAT rate
2. As regards the covered m-Toluidine or p-Toluidine to import, the importers shall declare the HS Code 2921430001; as regards o-Toluidine to import, the importers shall declare the code 2921430020.
3. The toluidine importers shall submit the Certificate of Origin to the customs; as regards the EU origin, the importers shall also submit the invoices of original EU manufacturers.
Where the importers fail to provide the Certificate of Origin and the origin cannot be determined in any other ways, the customs shall levy the antidumping duties at the highest rate listed in the Annex 2 hereto.
Where the importers fail to provide the original manufacturer invoices for the definite EU origin, and the original manufacturers cannot be determined through other documents, the customs shall levy the antidumping duties at the rate applied to other EU companies listed in the Annex 2 hereto.
4. As regards the antidumping duties on the bonded import by processing trade, the customs shall resort to GACC Decree No. 111 and Announcement No. 9 of 2001.
5. The cash deposits already paid following relevant provisional antidumping measures shall be converted into corresponding antidumping duties and/or import VAT as per the antidumping duty rates listed herein.
As regards any excess of the deposits over the antidumping duties and import VAT, the importers may request the customs to return within 6 months as from June 28, 2013; but any shortage of the deposits shall not be levied any more.
