CN Code Review Floated by EFDA
The fastener CN code — the product serial number for determining the anti-dumping duties — is likely to be modified, ChinaFastener.Info reports.
A general CN code in the past has resulted in “unfavorable determinations on anti-dumping cases,” against fasteners from Asia.
European Fastener Distributors Association president Bernhard Berrang suggested that it was necessary to subdivide CN code “so that Europe and the U.S would respond to those specified items causing harm to their industries’ interests.
A more specific response “could avoid painting every enterprise with the same brush if similar complaints happen again,” according to ChinaFastener.Info. The EFDA reportedly has discussed the CN code amendment at recent the meetings in Germany and Italy, and will formally put it on the agenda in the seminar scheduled for May 2012 in Paris. ©2012 GlobalFastenerNews.com
