South Africa: Sunset review on US anti-dumping duties

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   SF2022-0041

On November 9, 2022, The International Trade Administration Commission of South Africa (ITAC) announced the initiation of the sunset review of anti-dumping duties (ADDs) of frozen bone-in portions of poultry from the United States. According to the notice, ITAC received an application for an anti-dumping duty review from the South African Poultry Association (SAPA), claiming that the expiry of ADDs against imports of frozen bone-in portions from the United States would likely lead to the continuation or recurrent of dumping or material injury should they expire as scheduled on November 23 ITAC noted that application submitted by SAPA has enough prima facie evidence to trigger a sunset review investigation for the period of January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021. The United States bone-in chicken imports into South Africa have been affected by ADDs since 2000.
