Ukraine extends the duty on the import of fiberboards from Russia

Ukraine will revise the 31.58% anti-dumping duty on the import of wet-process hard fiberboards from Russia due to the expiration of the 5-year period of its application. The duty has been extended for the revision period initiated by Uniplit LLC, the largest fiberboard producer in Ukraine.

The Ukrainian legislation stipulates that a decision to extend or cancel anti-dumping measures must be made within 12 months after the start of the revision procedure, and the revision is entrusted to the Ministry of Economy.

According to WhatWood’s data, the exports of wet-process fiberboards from Russia to Ukraine are rather insignificant and totaled about 200 m³ in 2020.
