The Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China announced the introduction of preliminary anti-dumping duties on pork supplies from the European Union in the range from 15.6% to 62.4%. The decision comes into force on September 10. The agency explained that the investigation revealed the facts of dumping, which damages the Chinese pig industry. For companies that cooperated with the regulator during the audit, including manufacturers from Spain, Denmark and the Netherlands, tariffs will range from 15.6% to 32.7%. For other exporters, the maximum level is set at 62.4%. The anti-dumping investigation against European pork supplies began on June 17, 2024, at the request of the Chinese Livestock Association, which represented the interests of local producers. It followed shortly after the European Commission announced its intention to impose additional duties on imports of Chinese electric vehicles. In June of this year, the Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China extended the investigation until December 16, citing its «complexity.» Experts then regarded this step as an attempt by Beijing to preserve the space for negotiations with Brussels.
