Core Viewpoint - The Ministry of Commerce of China has announced a ruling on the anti-circumvention investigation regarding the import of certain single-mode optical fibers originating from the United States, indicating that U.S. exporters have circumvented existing anti-dumping measures by altering trade practices [3][4]. Summary by Relevant Sections Investigation Background - On March 4, 2025, the Ministry of Commerce initiated an anti-circumvention investigation into the import of related cutoff wavelength single-mode optical fibers from the U.S. at the request of domestic companies, marking China's first anti-circumvention investigation [4][6]. Findings and Ruling - The investigation revealed that U.S. exporters were exporting related cutoff wavelength single-mode optical fibers to China in a manner that lacked sufficient commercial rationale, thereby undermining the effectiveness of existing anti-dumping measures on non-dispersive single-mode optical fibers [3][4]. - As a result, the Ministry of Commerce proposed adjustments to the tax scope to the State Council Tariff Commission, which decided to apply the current anti-dumping tax rates on non-dispersive single-mode optical fibers to the related cutoff wavelength single-mode optical fibers starting from September 4, 2025 [3]. Anti-Dumping Tax Rates - The anti-dumping tax rates for various companies are as follows: Corning Incorporated at 37.9%, OFS Fitel, LLC at 33.3%, Draka Communications Americas, Inc. at 78.2%, and other U.S. companies at 78.2% [3]. - The implementation period for the anti-circumvention measures will be from September 4, 2025, to April 21, 2028, coinciding with the expiration of the anti-dumping measures on non-dispersive single-mode optical fibers [3].
