Tribunal ends antidumping duties on photovoltaic modules and laminates from China

September 23, 2026

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal announced it terminated the expiry review of its order made in March 2021 concerning the dumping and subsidizing of certain photovoltaic modules and laminates from China. The Tribunal is of the opinion that the expiry review is no longer supported by domestic producers. Accordingly, the Tribunal rescinded its order concerning the aforementioned goods.

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) will therefore not continue to impose anti-dumping and countervailing duties on these goods.

The CBSA will automatically refund these duties paid on eligible goods released on or after March 25, 2026. The CBSA will contact importers or their customs brokers if additional information or action is required.

For goods released on or after March 25, 2026, any outstanding re-determination process will be terminated and automatic refunds will be applied to those goods.

Goods released before March 25, 2026 are not eligible for a refund due to rescinding of the order. Assessments and reassessments relating to those earlier releases will continue.
