Canada's CITT continued, in expiry review RR-2025-006, its December 30, 2020 order from expiry review RR-2019-006 on dumped oil country tubular goods from Chinese Taipei, India, Indonesia, South Korea, Thailand, Türkiye and Vietnam, except goods exported from South Korea by Hyundai Steel Company and from Türkiye by Borusan Mannesmann Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş., and rescinded its order on such goods from Ukraine. The Tribunal found expiry was likely to result in injury for the seven countries and not likely to result in injury for Ukraine. CBSA will therefore continue anti-dumping duties on the seven countries and cease imposing them on Ukraine.
Why it matters: Entries of oil country tubular goods from Chinese Taipei, India, Indonesia, South Korea, Thailand, Türkiye and Vietnam remain subject to anti-dumping duties, except Hyundai Steel and Borusan Mannesmann shipments, while entries from Ukraine are no longer subject to them.

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal found in inquiry NQ-2026-002 that dumping and subsidizing of forged grinding media originating in or exported from China have not caused injury to the domestic industry but are threatening to cause injury, and anti-dumping and countervailing duties will therefore be collected by the Canada Border Services Agency. The complainant was Moly-Cop Canada of Kamloops, British Columbia. The Tribunal will issue its reasons on October 7, 2026.
Why it matters: Importers of forged grinding media from China face CBSA collection of anti-dumping and countervailing duties following the CITT's threat-of-injury finding, with the Tribunal's reasons due October 7, 2026.
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal rescinded its order concerning photovoltaic modules and laminates originating in or exported from China under subsection 76.03(2) and subparagraph 76.03(12)(a)(iii) of the Special Import Measures Act, so anti-dumping and countervailing duties no longer apply to new releases of covered goods. The CBSA will automatically refund these duties on eligible goods released on or after March 25, 2026, and any outstanding re-determination process for those goods will be terminated. Goods released before March 25, 2026 are not eligible for a refund, and assessments and reassessments relating to those earlier releases will continue.
Why it matters: Importers of photovoltaic modules and laminates from China released on or after March 25, 2026 receive automatic refunds of anti-dumping and countervailing duties, while goods released earlier remain subject to continuing assessments and any outstanding re-determination deadlines.
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal terminated the expiry review of its March 25, 2021 order in expiry review RR-2020-001, concerning the dumping and subsidizing of certain photovoltaic modules and laminates from China, and rescinded that order.

Why it matters: Anti-dumping and countervailing duties on certain photovoltaic modules and laminates from China will no longer be imposed following the CITT's rescission of its order in RR-2020-001.
