Global trade rules permit, but do not require, countries to undertake trade remedy measures. These include the imposition of temporary duties through anti-dumping or countervailing action. Because such duties are product- and firm-specific, they create incentives for businesses to exploit the ‘wedge’ between world and protected prices by circumvent...
Most jurisdictions require an analysis of changes to trade patterns as a starting point of circumvention investigations. This is a legal stipulation that requires empirical analysis. The analysis will need to take into account the fact that a range of economic factors can drive changes in trade patterns. In particular, duties, including trade remed...
We considered anti-circumvention action in a range of jurisdictions, with a particular focus on the EU, the United States, Canada and Australia. Each of these jurisdictions has specific frameworks for circumvention. One common feature that emerges is the relative degree of concentration of product categories that are subject to anti-circumvention d...
The country most frequently engaged in circumvention in the United States, EU, and Australia is the People’s Republic of China (PRC). In the EU, the PRC was involved in 29 of the 32 cases in the period 2009-2021 in which the EU imposed duties, while for the United States the figure is 22 out of 32 and Australia it is 5 out of 8. The result is unsur...
Authorities in the jurisdictions studied in this report typically base their decisions on a range of evidence. This includes trade data, data retrieved from written question-response processes and site visits, and different types of qualitative information, e.g. on market demand and end-use patterns or the organisation of production. The types of i...
The two steps that are specific to a circumvention inquiry and that place the heaviest demands on analytical capacity are, respectively, ascertaining that there has been a change in the pattern of trade as a result of trade remedies, and to attribute these to particular circumvention activities. We propose a toolkit describing the evidence needed t...
A review of practices and approaches to anti-circumvention suggests that decision-making requires considerable judgement in weighing multiple types of evidence. The capacity to do this develops over time through experience. The main challenge for a newly established institution such as the TRA is therefore to rapidly put in place a process that ens...
Mar 31, 2023 · Circumvention is when traders try to avoid anti-dumping and countervailing duties by sending their goods to a different country to undergo processes that do not change the origin of the goods.
Interim review procedure To request an interim review, contact the Commission in writing, stating the reasons for the review and providing prima facie evidence substantiating the need for it. If the Commission accepts the request, it will then publish a Notice of Initiation in the EU’s Official Journal and send out questionnaires to interested parties, just as in the original investigation.
Implement mitigating measures: proactively incorporate the results of the risk analysis into internal procedures and test their effectiveness; and; Regular updates: as sanctions measures and circumvention techniques evolve rapidly, update key information and staff training regularly.

Nov 16, 2022 · Trade data analysis will form a key plank of the TRA’s approach to monitoring for circumvention going forward, but it can’t fully replace the need for investigations to dig deeply into this issue when considering individual cases. Circumvention reviews will need to combine data on trade flows and the analytical skills needed to interpret it ...
