Summary
Summary#
On July 16, 2025, the Canada Border Services Agency ended a dumping investigation under the Special Import Measures Act into corrosion-resistant steel sheet from Borçelik Çelik Sanayi Ticaret A.Ş. (Türkiye), finding the goods were not dumped. Provisional duties will stop applying to the goods covered by this decision and any provisional duties or security already paid will be refunded as appropriate.
What it does#
- Terminates the CBSA’s dumping investigation into corrosion-resistant steel sheet from Borçelik Çelik Sanayi Ticaret A.Ş. (decision dated July 16, 2025).
- Stops the imposition of provisional duties on imports covered by the terminated investigation.
- Provides for the refund of any provisional duties paid or security posted in relation to that investigation.
- Notes that the listed tariff classification numbers include both subject and non-subject goods (the notice lists many tariff codes).
- Says the CBSA will publish a Statement of Reasons explaining the decision within 15 days and it will be available on the CBSA website.
Who's affected#
- Importers and customs brokers dealing with corrosion-resistant steel sheet imported from Türkiye, especially shipments tied to Borçelik Çelik Sanayi Ticaret A.Ş.
- Businesses that bought, used, or planned to buy these steel products in Canada (they may see costs reversed or shipments released).
- The Canada Border Services Agency, which will publish the reasons for the decision.
- It is not fully clear from the notice how many other exporters or specific Canadian companies are directly affected.
Why it matters#
- Companies that had provisional duties charged or security posted can expect refunds, which reduces unexpected costs and cash-flow pressure.
- Importers whose shipments were held or at risk of extra duties should face less disruption and uncertainty.
- The forthcoming Statement of Reasons (within 15 days) will explain why the CBSA found no dumping, which is useful for industry clarity and for anyone tracking trade enforcement decisions.
