The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the “CITT”) announced an Order in Expiry Review RR-2023-001 on March 20, 2024 (the “Order”), continuing its finding made on April 23, 2018, in Expiry Review NQ-2017-005, in respect of the dumping and subsidizing of all dry wheat pasta originating in or exported from the Republic of Türkiye (the “Subject Goods”).

What is an Expiry Review

Expiry Reviews are conducted jointly by the Canada Border Services Agency (the “CBSA”) and the CITT to review prior Anti-Dumping Duty (“ADD”) or Countervailing Duty (“CVD”) findings made by the CITT (the “Findings”) under the Special Import Measures Act (“SIMA”). These Expiry Reviews generally occur every 5 years following the original finding or subsequent continuation orders (“Orders”).
