China levied anti-dumping duties on carbon steel fasteners imported from European Union since June 29, 2010.

It set a final duty ranging from 6.1 percent to 26 percent (KAMAX-Werke Rudolf Kellermann GmbH & Co. KG, 6.1%; all others, 26.0%) on imports of carbon steel fasteners from the EU.

KAMAX GmbH & Co. KG applied for 6.1 percent duty on July 12, 2011 after its reconstruction from the previous company—KAMAX-Werke Rudolf Kellermann GmbH & Co. KG.

Thus, the Ministry of Commerce decided that KAMAX GmbH & Co. KG could carry on the previous rights and obligation in the carbon steel fastener anti-dumping case. That is China only imposes 6.1 percent duties on imports from KAMAX GmbH & Co. KG.

However, imports in the name of KAMAX-Werke Rudolf Kellermann GmbH & Co. KG will be imposed 26.0 percent anti-dumping duties as that of the “other European companies”.
