Anti-dumping Law: The Basic Concepts

1. What is dumping?

In international trade, dumping is a phenomenon occurs when a commodity is exported at a price lower than the selling price of that item in the domestic market of the exporting country. Therefore, it is simple to understand that if the export price of a commodity is lower than its domestic prices, the product may be considered to be dumped.

Anti-dumping Law Firm in Vietnam

2. Why is dumping?

There are many causes of dumping in international trade. In fact, there are many cases that seller deliberately dumping in order to achieve certain benefits such as: Dumping to eliminate competitors in the import market to become monopoly and gain market share; Selling at low price to acquire foreign currency… Sometimes, the dumping is reluctant because the manufacturer and exporter cannot sell product, the production is stalled then the long-term storage products could be corrupted… Hence, they have to sell off to recover capital.

In international trade, the anti-dumping tax may be imposed without regarding to the reason why the manufacturers dumping. Dumped into foreign markets is often perceived as a negative phenomenon because it reduces the competitiveness of prices and the market share of domestic products of importing countries.

However, dumping can have positive impacts on the economy: consumers benefit from low price goods; if dumped goods are inputs of other manufacturing sector then the low raw material prices can make certain growth of that industry… Therefore, not all acts of dumping will be applying the anti-dumping measures.

As regulated by the World Trade Organization (WTO), the anti-dumping measures can only be applied in certain circumstances and must meet certain conditions. Specifically, the anti-dumping measures are applied only when the following three conditions are met: The imported goods are dumped; the manufacturing sector of similar products of the importing countries is significantly affected; there is a causal relationship between the dumping of imports goods and losses mentioned above

3. The anti-dumping tax?

The anti-dumping tax is the additional taxes besides the normal import tax, which is imposed on foreign products that are dumped into the importing country. This type of tax is to prevent dumping and eliminate the damages caused by the dumping of imported goods. In fact, the anti-dumping tax is used in many countries as a form of “legal protection” for its domestic production. In order to prevent the abuse of this measure, the WTO member countries have together agreed on the provisions required to comply regarding the investigation and imposition of anti-dumping tax, concentrated in an Agreement of the WTO on anti-dumping, which is the ADA Agreement.

What Are the Conditions for Initiating an Anti-dumping Case in Vietnam

 

Anti-dumping measures as trade remedies are imposed to protect the domestic market against the unfair penetration and competition from foreign goods. GATT requires member countries to reduce tariffs as well as other non-tariff trade barriers on goods in general and to impose trade remedies in accordance with statutory conditions and procedures in particular.

 

What Are the Conditions for Initiating an Anti-dumping Case

The investigating authority must verify the satisfied conditions under regulations of the anti-dumping law and requests the Minister of Industry and Trade to issue a decision on the initiation of investigations. In order to comply with GATT and ADA, an anti-dumping investigation are initiated if (i) there is obvious evidence that import of dumped goods causes or threatens material injury to an established industry or materially retards the establishment of a domestic industry and (ii) organizations or individuals representing the domestic industry submit an application for the anti-dumping measures.

How to determine dumping actions and its consequences?

The dumping action is one of the conditions required as imposing anti-dumping measures.  A product is to be considered as being dumped (i.e. introduced into the commerce of another country at less than its normal value) if the export price of the product exported from one country to another is less than the comparable price, in the ordinary course of trade, for the like product when destined for consumption in the exporting country. Besides, the anti-dumping measure shall not be imposed on a product whose dumping margin is not more than 2% of its export price.

The investigating authority must determine whether the domestic established industry is materially injured or threatened material injury or establishment of a domestic industry is materially retarded or not. The investigating authority of the importing country shall be liable for proving these factors based on specific evidences.

A causal link between the dumped imports and the alleged injury is required. The dumping of goods imported into Vietnam causes or threatens material injury to an established industry or materially retards the establishment of a domestic industry. Factors other than dumping of goods imported into Vietnam such as trade restriction policy, development of technology, export capacity and productivity of domestic manufacturing industry, etc., will not be considered as effect caused by the dumping of goods.

Whom could request for imposing anti-dumping measures?

Investigation is conducted upon request of imposing anti-dumping measures by organizations or individuals representing the domestic industry. Organizations or individuals are deemed as representation of domestic industry if: The total production of like products produced by the applicant(s) and domestic producers supporting the application is greater than those produced by domestic producers that opposite to the application; and the total production of like products produced by the applicant(s) and domestic producers supporting the application accounts for at least 25% of total production of like products produced by the domestic industry.

Upon receiving a sufficient dossier as prescribed by the laws, the investigating authority shall conduct the dossier appraisal within a certain time limit and recommend the Minister of Industry and Trade to decide whether the investigation is initiated or not.
