Part I · Anti-Dumping Duties

53. Definitive collection of provisional duties

Official English translation. Where it differs from the Sinhala or Tamil text, the Act itself says which text prevails.

(1)

Where the Director-General makes a final determination of injury (but not of a threat thereof or of material retardation of the establishment of an industry) or, in the case of a final determination of a threat of injury, where the Director-General considers that the effect of the dumped imports would, in the absence of the provisional measures, have led to a determination of injury, definitive anti-dumping duties may be levied retroactively for the period for which provisional measures, if any, have been applied.

(2)

Where the definitive anti-dumping duty is higher than the amount estimated for the purpose of the provisional measure, the difference shall not be collected, but where the definitive duty is lower than the amount estimated for the purpose of the security, the difference shall be reimbursed.

(3)

Except as provided for in subsection (1), where the

Director-General makes a determination of threat of injury or material retardation (but no injury has yet occurred) a definitive anti-dumping duty may be imposed only from the date of the determination of threat of injury or material retardation. Any provisional duty paid shall be reimbursed within a period of one and a half months.

(4)

Where the Director-General makes a negative final determination, any provisional duty paid during the period of application shall be reimbursed within a period of one and a half months.
