EU’s Document on E-Bike Dumping Accuses China of State Interference and Distorting Competition

BRUSSELS, Belgium – The last Thursday published “General Final Disclosure Document” on “Case AD643 - Anti-dumping proceeding concerning imports of electric bicycles originating in the People's Republic of China” brings to light the motivations that lead to the European Union’s intention to impose high dumping duties on e-bikes imported from China. The European Commission’s motivations vary from state interference by China leading to distorting competition bringing significantly lower than average prices of imports which led to findings of substantial undercutting and dumping.
