The Canadian International Trade Tribunal's April 2, 2015 finding concerning the dumping of certain oil country tubular goods originating in or exported from Chinese Taipei, India, Indonesia, the Philippines, the Republic of Korea, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine and Vietnam, is scheduled to expire on April 1, 2020, unless the Tribunal has initiated an expiry review.
Under Canadian law, findings of injury or threat of injury and the associated special protection in the form of anti-dumping and/or countervailing duty expire five years from the date of the last order or finding (or its continuation) unless an expiry review has been initiated before that date.
The Tribunal is now consulting interested parties to determine if the finding should be left to expire or if it should conduct a review which could prolong it.
Parties requesting or opposing the initiation of an expiry review of the findings must file a notice of participation with the Tribunal's Secretary on or before the date specified in the Tribunal's Notice of Expiry.
The Tribunal will issue a decision by February 24, 2020, on whether an expiry review is warranted. If the Tribunal decides that an expiry review is not warranted, the order will expire on its scheduled expiry date. If the Tribunal decides to initiate an expiry review, it will issue a notice of expiry review.
