The International Trade team at Ilyashev & Partners, led by Partner Olena Omelchenko, has successfully achieved the imposition of final anti-dumping measures on imports of heating radiators originating from the People's Republic of China and the Republic of Turkey into Ukraine.
On April 16, 2025, the Interdepartmental Commission on International Trade issued Decision No. AD-573/2025/441-01, establishing final anti-dumping duties as follows:
- 37.35% for manufacturers and exporters of heating radiators from the Republic of Turkey;
- 23.30% to 42.00% for manufacturers and exporters of heating radiators from the People's Republic of China, depending on the specific producer.
These measures apply to imports of steel, aluminum, and bimetallic heating radiators classified under UCGFEA codes ex 7322 19 00 00, ex 7616 99 10 00, and ex 7616 99 90 00. Excluded from these measures are towel warmers, underfloor water convectors, and designer tubular radiators.
The definitive duties will be in effect for five years and will come into force ten days after the official publication of the Commission's decision in the Uryadovy Courier newspaper. The duties will be collected by customs authorities independently of other taxes and fees.
"National manufacturers must be protected for economic reasons as well as for reasons of strategic national security," emphasized Olena Omelchenko. "With the current economic climate, it is imperative to establish fair competition conditions on the domestic market and stop dumping pressure from foreign suppliers. By taking this decision, Ukrainian companies will be able to restore production, maintain jobs, and invest in development."
The anti-dumping investigation was initiated in April 2024 following a complaint filed by San Teh Rai LLC and Uterm Ukraine LLC, represented by Ilyashev & Partners. As a result of the Commission's investigation, dumping, harm to domestic producers, and causality were all confirmed.
