Chinese
fasteners verdict
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has declared
the final results of its re-investigation of certain carbon steel
fasteners from China and Chinese Taipei.
It updated both the normal values and export prices of
certain carbon steel fasteners originating in or exported
from China and Chinese Taipei and updated the amounts
of subsidy of certain carbon steel fasteners originating in
or exported from China, pursuant to the Special Import
Measures act.
Exporters who are not the manufacturer of the subject
goods received normal values only to the extent that their
suppliers/manufacturers provided sufficient information
to permit the determination of normal values and export
prices. If the exporter or its suppliers/manufacturers provided
insufficient information, normal values for that exporter will
be determined by advancing the export price of the goods
by 170 percent.
With respect to the subsidy portion of the re-investigation,
which relates only to subject goods originating inor exported
fromChina, the government of China did not respond to the
government subsidy request for information. However, the
CBSA considered the information from the manufacturers/
exporters that provided a complete response to the
request in order to determine amounts of subsidy. For all
other exporters, including those that provided insufficient
information, the amount of subsidy applicable will be 1.25
Chinese renminbi per kilogram.
