Los Miembros examinan notificaciones y medidas antidumping en la reunión del Comité

The Committee reviewed new notifications of legislation submitted by Comoros and Tajikistan and continued its review of the legislative notifications of the European Union, Liberia, Saint Kitts and Nevis, and the Solomon Islands. 

In reviewing semi-annual notifications on anti-dumping actions, delegations questioned and discussed the practices of other members, including in relation to the initiation of investigations, the imposition of provisional and final anti-dumping measures, and the review of existing anti-dumping measures. 

In this respect, delegations questioned and discussed actions contained in the semi-annual reports submitted by Australia; Brazil; Canada; China; the European Union; Iceland; India; Indonesia; Japan; the Republic of Korea; Mexico; South Africa; Chinese Taipei; and the United States. 

Forty-five members notified the Committee of anti-dumping actions taken in the period covering 1 January to 30 June 2026, while 11 reported no new anti-dumping actions in this period. 

In addition, 48 members submitted one-time notifications indicating they have not established an authority competent to initiate and conduct an investigation and have not, to date, taken any anti-dumping actions. 

Mr Danny Lo (Hong Kong, China), the Chair of the Committee, welcomed members' continued use of the WTO's anti-dumping portal to submit their semi-annual reports and urged members that had not submitted semi-annual reports to do so promptly. 

In addition to the semi-annual reports, the WTO's Anti-Dumping Agreement requires members to submit without delay - on an ad hoc basis - notifications of all preliminary and final anti-dumping actions taken. 

Ad hoc notifications reviewed during the meeting were received from Argentina; Armenia; Australia; Brazil; Canada; China; the Dominican Republic; Egypt; the European Union; Indonesia; Japan; Kazakhstan; the Republic of Korea; the Kyrgyz Republic; Madagascar; Mexico; Morocco; Pakistan; the Russian Federation; South Africa; Chinese Taipei; Türkiye; Ukraine; the United Kingdom; the United States; and Viet Nam. 

In this context, concerns regarding AD actions by China were raised by Mexico. The Chair urged members to submit ad hoc notifications of actions taken without delay. 

The United States placed an item on the agenda entitled "Analysis on the use of e-agenda since 2024". The Committee requested the WTO Secretariat to prepare a document on the use of e-agenda since 2024 and have it circulated prior to the April 2027 meeting of the Committee.

The Committee adopted its 2026 annual report to the Council for Trade in Goods.
