Requesting a Re-determination

Decisions Under the Special Import Measures Act – Anti-dumping or Countervailing Duties

Requesting a Re-determination

A request for a re-determination may cover:

  • The imported goods, as to whether they are goods of the same description as goods to which the order or finding of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal applies
  • The information used in the assessment of anti-dumping or countervailing duties payable on imported goods, such as the determination of the normal value, the amount of subsidy or the export price

The importer of the goods has the right to make a request to a designated officer for a re-determination of the decision within 90 days of the date on which a CBSA assessment notice is given. A request to the President for a re-determination may then be further made within 90 days of the decision made by the designated officer.

If the importer of the goods self-assessed the anti-dumping or countervailing duties, a request to a designated officer for a re-determination can be made within 120 days of the date of accounting. A request to the President for a re-determination may then be further made within 90 days of the decision made by the designated officer.

These requests can be made by submitting a completed Form B2 (Adjustment Request) and supporting materials to the following address:

Anti-dumping and Countervailing Directorate
Canada Border Services Agency
c/o Manager, Compliance Unit
100 Metcalfe Street, 11th Floor
Ottawa ON K1A 0L8

Please note that a request for a re-determination will be accepted by the CBSA only if all amounts owing as duties and interest in respect of the goods referred to in the determination, including goods of a NAFTA country, have been paid in full by the importer of the goods. Where a determination is made in respect of goods of a NAFTA country, the government of that NAFTA country, or, if they are of that NAFTA country, the producer, manufacturer or exporter of the goods may make a request for re-determination, whether or not the importer of the goods has paid all duties and interest owing on the goods. Security or bond cannot be posted for a request for a re-determination of anti-dumping or countervailing duties imposed on imported goods.
