Dear Sirs,

Commercial Information Circular No. 369/2011

European Union (EU) * : Impending Expiry of Anti-dumping Measures on Imports of Certain Frozen Strawberries Originating in the Mainland of China

Further to the Commercial Information Circular No. 167/2007 of 17 April 2007, the European Commission has published a notice concerning the impending expiry of the anti-dumping measures on imports of certain frozen strawberries originating in the Mainland of China. The notice can be accessed through the following link : http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=OJ:C:2011:187:0015:0015:EN:PDF.

DETAILS

2. Definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of certain frozen strawberries originating in the Mainland of China has been imposed since 18 April 2007 with the rate of duty as the difference between the minimum import price (which ranges from EUR 496.8 to EUR 598 per tonne, depending on the sugar content) and the net free-at-Union-frontier price before duty, if the latter is lower than the former (except for one company whose individual duty rate is 0%). Where it is found that the net free-at-Union-frontier price actually paid by the first independent customer in the Union is below the net free-at-Union-frontier price before duty as resulting from the customs declaration, and is lower than the minimum import price, the fixed anti-dumping duty (which ranges from EUR 169.9 to EUR 204.5 per tonne, depending on the sugar content, except for one company) shall apply.

3. Unless a review is initiated in accordance with the procedure set out in section 2 of the notice, the anti-dumping duty will expire on 18 April 2012.
