Increase in the Number of Trade Remedies Investigations Involving Manufacturers in Southeast Asia: What This Entails and How to Be Ready

Over the last few years, multiple trade remedies investigations have been initiated against manufactures based across different countries in the Southeast Asia and covering multiple sectors. Some of the most recent examples include:

• Corrosion-resistant steel products – anti-dumping and countervailing duty investigations, covering multiple countries, including Vietnam and Taiwan;
• Polyester fiber staples from, among others, India, Vietnam, Malaysia and Thailand;
• Bicycle tyres from, among others, India and Vietnam.

Our experts based in Southeast Asia and the Americas will provide practical guidance on the following topics, important for compliance and business development teams of manufacturing businesses:

1. How trade investigations can be started and what can make your company included on the list
2. What are the usual timeframes
3. Actively participate or not get involved in the process – what factors manufacturer should consider when taking strategic decision
4. Internal legal and compliance team: key items to keep in mind and be ready for
5. What could be the outcome of a trade investigation: perspective of the business development / sales team
6. Which market / sales / technical information should be maintained and updated, to be ready to respond to the investigating agency
7. Steps involved on both ends of the investigation (country of investigation and country of manufacturing)
