European Aluminium Rollers in the hot-list due to another US dumping investigation
The US Aluminium Association's Common Alloy Aluminium Sheet Trade Enforcement Working Group filed antidumping and countervailing duty petitions against 18 countries on 9th March’20. This occurs just after 13 months the US Department of Commerce published AD and CVD orders on imports of common alloy sheet from China.
The announcement stated: "The domestic industry's antidumping petitions allege that common alloy aluminium sheet from Bahrain, Brazil, Croatia, Egypt, Germany, Greece, India, Indonesia, Italy, Oman, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan, and Turkey was dumped in the United States at margins ranging from 15.90% to 151.00% of the value of the imported common alloy aluminium sheet. Domestic producers also filed countervailing duty petitions alleging that producers in Bahrain, Brazil, India, and Turkey benefit from numerous governments subsidy programs."
It is just like the China case, which was excluded from the scope of the latest petition is the aluminium can stock.
The commencing deadline for preliminary CVD determinations was adjourned from 3rd June to 7th August’20, while the preliminary AD determinations are set for 17th August.
