China extends anti-dumping duties on optical fibers from India
China will continue to levy anti-dumping duties on imports of single-mode optical fibers from India for another five years, the Ministry of Commerce said on Thursday.
The extension will take effect from August 14, the MOC said in a statement, adding that the decision was made following an expiry review launched at the request of the domestic industry in June last year.
China started to impose anti-dumping duties on imported single-mode optical fibers from India from August 2014, with tariff rates ranging from 7.4 percent to 30.6 percent, according to an MOC ruling on August 13, 2014.
Single-mode optical fibers are used for manufacturing telecommunications equipment.
