The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) is now reviewing anti-dumping duty (ADD) and anti-subsidy taxes imposed on upholstered seating from China and Vietnam, the Trade Remedies Authority under Vietnam’s ministry of industry and trade recently said.

The review is being carried out under the request of the importer and the exporter needs to provide a complete response as requested by CBSA before April 29 this year.

In 2021, CBSA had conducted one such investigation, and out of eight Vietnamese enterprises that cooperated, only one is subject to the anti-subsidy tax of 3.7 per cent. The anti-subsidy tax rate for non-cooperating businesses is 5.5 per cent.

Most enterprises that cooperated in the investigation then are imposed duty rates between 10 per cent and 20 per cent compared to preliminary levels of 20-90 per cent, according to Vietnamese media reports.

The duty rate for those who didn’t cooperate is up to 179.5 per cent.
