【大悲報】ベトナム最大271.45％のAD/CVD関税が課せられる！？【早ければ来週決定】

バイデン政権が早ければ来週にも、中国に対する電気自動車や電池、太陽光発電設備などを対象とした関税の強化を発表するとアメリカメディアなどが報じた。
その関連で問題になっていた東南アジア４ヵ国への太陽電池、モジュールに対する関税率も決定する可能性がある。

On April 24, 2024, the American Alliance for Solar Manufacturing Trade Committee (the Petitioner)1 filed antidumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) petitions on U.S. imports of crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, whether or not assembled into modules (solar cells and modules),2 from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. The Petitioner asserts that imports of solar cells and modules from these countries, which represented nearly 80% of U.S. imports of solar cells and modules in 2023, are injuring the U.S. domestic industry because they are sold in the United States for “less than normal value” (i.e., dumped) and unfairly subsidized. These petitions aim to impose antidumping and countervailing duties on U.S. imports of solar cells and modules from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam that were not subject to the recent determinations by the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) that certain solar cells and modules from these countries were circumventing the existing AD/CVD orders on solar cells and modules from China.3

If the DOC determines that such dumping or subsidization is occurring and the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) determines that these imports are materially injuring or threatening material injury to the U.S. domestic industry, the DOC may impose significant duties, which may equal or exceed the margins alleged in the petitions — that is, Cambodia 126.07%, Malaysia 81.24%, Thailand 70.35%, and Vietnam 271.45%.

This Sidley Update provides further information about these petitions in the following sections below: (1) proposed scope of the investigations; (2) producers, exporters, and importers named in the petitions; (3) alleged dumping margins and subsidy rates; and (4) key dates and deadlines.

Sidley lawyers are available to advise and assist producers, exporters, importers, and purchasers that may be affected by these AD/CVD petitions.
