Notice of expedited review: Photovoltaic Modules and Laminates (SML 2024 XR)

Ottawa,

In response to a request for an expedited review from Alignsun Energy, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has today initiated an expedited review of certain photovoltaic modules and laminates originating in or exported from China by Ningbo Raytech New Energy Materials Co., Ltd. pursuant to subsection 13.2(3) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA).

This expedited review is part of the CBSA’s enforcement of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal’s (CITT) orders, respecting the dumping and subsidizing of photovoltaic modules and laminates from China, in accordance with SIMA.

The product definition and the applicable tariff classification numbers of the goods subject to the CITT’s orders (subject goods) can be found on the CBSA’s Measures in force.

Should an exporter decide to participate in this expedited review, it is required to provide a complete and accurate response to the CBSA’s dumping request for information (RFI) and subsidy RFI by July 3, 2024, 5 p.m. ET. The exporter will be considered co-operative if the requested information is complete, submitted on time and the exporter permits verification of the data.

If an exporter does not provide a complete response to the RFIs by the deadline date, normal values, export prices, and an amount of subsidy for subject goods exported by the exporter will be determined pursuant to a ministerial specification by advancing the export price of the goods from China by a rate of 154.4%. Similarly, in cases where the Government of China or the exporter fails to provide complete and accurate submissions enabling the determination of specific amounts of subsidy, countervailing duties will be assessed at the rate of 0.340 Renminbi per watt, pursuant to ministerial specification.

The schedule for this expedited review is now available. The CBSA will close the record for this expedited review once it has been determined that sufficient information has been received to make a decision. The CBSA will update the website to announce that the record has been closed. Interested parties will have seven days from the close of the record to file submissions concerning the expedited review.

Normal values, export prices and amounts of subsidy established during this review will apply to the goods in question. Further, normal values, export prices and amounts of subsidy established during this review will also apply to subject goods released from the CBSA on or after the date of the conclusion of the expedited review. The normal values, export prices and amounts of subsidy determined as a result of this review may be applied to any requests for re determination of importations of subject goods that have not been processed prior to the conclusion of the expedited review, regardless of the date that the requests were received.
