Communiqué on the Prevention of Unfair Competition in Imports (No: 2026/1)
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This Turkish regulation extends anti-dumping duties on polyester staple fibres (GTIP 5503.20.00.00.00) originating from India, Taiwan, and Thailand for an additional five years. It concludes a sunset review initiated by the 2024/25 Communiqué, determining that the expiry of existing measures would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of dumping and injury. Specific duties range from 3.20% to 12.00% of the CIF value depending on the exact product code, country of origin, and named producers. The duties are collected upon entry into free circulation and the measure will automatically expire after five years unless a new review is launched.
