How do companies deal with plastic products being "anti-dumping"?

Since entering 2016, the plastics industry has experienced several anti-dumping incidents (anti-dumping, a tool under the new trade protectionism in the broad sense). In March, Argentina initiated an anti-dumping review investigation on China's disposable plastic syringes; in mid-April, Egyptian plastics manufacturers submitted an application to increase anti-dumping duties on DOP plastic and plastic raw materials imported from Southeast Asia; at the end of April, India imported China. PVC paste resin to do anti-dumping sunset review final ruling, increase high anti-dumping duties; in early May, the United States issued anti-dumping continuation tax order on polyethylene plastic bags produced in China, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and other countries... The anti-dumping behavior is too numerous to mention. However, in the later settlement process, it is often solved by the concessions of Chinese enterprises. Faced with the high anti-dumping tax rate, it not only affects China’s trade image, but also is quite disadvantageous for enterprises. of. Then, in the face of such a situation, how should the company itself “prescribe the right medicine” and actively prevent “anti-dumping”?

First, companies should be familiar with WTO trade rules. As the saying goes: no rules are not square. In the world trading system, the WTO trade rules are like a code of conduct on import and export of trading countries. For importing countries, the low price of imported products will inevitably have a huge impact on domestic manufacturers, affecting the normal production, sales and purchase of local industries. For the protection of domestic industries, some countries will implement trade protection policies. With a view to protecting the normal operation of domestic industries, China, as a "world factory", must bear the brunt. In 2015, the export volume of plastic products reached 9.73 million tons, an increase of 2.3% year-on-year. The export of plastic products accounted for 6.88% of China's total exports in 2015. At the same time, the anti-dumping cases of plastic products enterprises have shown an upward trend in recent years. Therefore, in the behavior of exporting, enterprises should first familiarize and actively adopt the WTO trade rules, and the quality requirements of export products are in compliance with the rules.

Second, enterprises should face anti-dumping cases with a positive attitude. Under the conditions of trade diversification and globalization, the more Chinese manufacturing has gone abroad, the domestic large, medium and small trading companies are also row upon row. So many trading companies must have a lot of trade behaviors, so they may encounter anti-dumping. case. For plastic export enterprises, once an anti-dumping case occurs, how to deal with it correctly is particularly important. In the anti-dumping cases that have always been encountered, Chinese companies are often in a weak position and are forced to accept super-high tax rates or high fines. At the beginning of the century, China’s accession to the WTO began to be a jubilation. Then some people suggested that joining the WTO would have advantages and disadvantages for China. Under the conditions of globalization of trade, it was like a double-edged sword. Therefore, we should face up to it. The pros and cons of it. In the case of anti-dumping cases, we should face with a positive and correct attitude, use rules to protect our rights and interests, and do not produce a negative attitude, and strive to minimize the damage.
