Importers of aluminium extrusions will need to give HMRC a guarantee for the provisional duty amount in the form of cash, bond, or a bank guarantee, while this duty applies.

Importing aluminium extrusions from China:

A provisional anti-dumping duty on aluminium extrusions from China is being introduced. Importers of these products will need to provide HMRC with a guarantee for the provisional duty amount in the form of cash, bond, or a bank guarantee, while the provisional duty applies.

From 17 August 2022, the following changes will take effect:

  • a provisional tariff will apply to goods from China, falling within the commodity codes listed at the end of this notice — the provisional tariff is to be covered by the guarantee and is not payable during the period of the provisional remedy
  • duty rates between 9.50% and 22.35% will apply to imports from Chinese companies (detailed in this notice), that have cooperated with the Trade Remedies Authority investigation
  • for all other Chinese exporters, a duty rate of 128.17% will apply
  • importers of goods from China must provide a guarantee in the form of cash, a bond or a bank guarantee, equal to the estimated amount of provisional anti-dumping duty due on their imports.
