South Africa to keep anti-dumping duties on chicken imports from US
Trade minister Ebrahim Patel approved a recommendation to maintain anti-dumping duties on frozen bone-in chicken portions originating in or imported from the US.
Following an investigation that started in December 2022, the International Trade Administration Commission of South Africa, known as ITAC, concluded that the expiry of duties on these poultry portions would likely lead to the continuation or recurrence of dumping, and material injury to the chicken industry in the Southern African Customs Union, according to a Government Gazette Notice.
The panel recommended to Patel that the duties be maintained at R9.40 ($0.49) per kilogram.
