Domestic Vietnamese companies have submitted a request for an anti-dumping (AD) sunset review on certain welding materials imported from China, Malaysia, and Thailand. The application was officially received by the Trade Remedies Authority of Vietnam on May 21, 2026. The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT) now has 30 days from that date to decide whether to initiate a formal investigation.
The dispute dates back to March 18, 2021, when Vietnam launched its original anti-dumping probe. On August 19, 2022, the authority issued a final affirmative determination, imposing AD duties ranging from 0% to 36.56% for a five-year period.
The welding materials subject to the review fall under the following HS codes: 7217.10.10, 7217.30.19, 7217.90.10, 7229.20.00, 7229.90.20, 7229.90.99, 8311.10.10, 8311.10.90, 8311.30.91, 8311.30.99, and 8311.90.00.
