1. Secretary of State’s decision on new exporter review
This public notice is published by the Secretary of State under Regulation 71 of the Trade Remedies (Dumping and Subsidisation) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 and under Section 13 of the Taxation (Cross-Border) Trade Act 2018.
The public notice relates to cycles, including those with pedal assistance or an auxiliary motor, that are 2, 3 or 4 wheeled as set out in:
This public notice gives effect to the Secretary of State’s decision to accept the Trade Remedies Authority’s (TRA) recommendation on a new exporter review on anti-dumping duties on electric bicycles originating in the People’s Republic of China.
The TRA has found that Jinhua Otmar Technology Co. Ltd and Jinhua Seno Technology Co. Ltd are entities who did not export to the EU in the EU period of investigation, are not related to another company subject to the EU duty measures, and exported to the UK in the period after the EU period of investigation.
The basis for the recommendation is that:
- the applicants, Jinhua Otmar Technology Co, Ltd and Jinhua Seno Technology Co. Ltd are new exporters
- the anti-dumping amount applied to the goods subject to review should be varied from 62.1% to 16.2%, which is the non-sampled overseas exporter amount to be applied under Regulation 71(4) of the Trade Remedies (Dumping and Subsidisation) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019
- the varied rate consists of a non-sampled co-operating rate of 33.4%, which is made up of an anti-dumping duty of 16.2% and a countervailing duty of 17.2%
