BEIJING: China will impose &#8220;anti-dumping duties&#8221; ranging from 4.9% to 19.8% on some EU pork and pork products, the country&#8217;s commerce ministry announced Tuesday.
The levies are lower than temporary duties imposed in September, which ranged from 15.6% to 62.4%, but will be in place for five years.
The duties will be applied from Dec 17, after an anti-dumping investigation found imports from the bloc &#8220;were being dumped, and the domestic industry suffered substantial damages&#8221; as a result, the ministry said in a statement.
China&#8217;s probe began last year as Brussels scrutinised Beijing&#8217;s state subsidies for electric vehicles.
&#8220;At present, the domestic industry is facing difficulties, and there are strong calls for protection,&#8221; a commerce ministry spokesman said on Tuesday.
They added that the investigation&#8217;s conclusions were &#8220;objective, fair, and impartial&#8221;.
China &#8212; the world&#8217;s leading consumer of pork &#8212; imported 4.3 billion yuan (US$600 million) in pork products from major producer Spain alone last year, according to official Chinese customs data.
