Update on Anti-Dumping Duties for Ceramic Tiles

Published October 24, 2024

public notice relating to ceramic tiles has been published that gives effect to the Secretary of State’s decision to accept the Trade Remedies Authority’s (TRA) recommendation to partially revoke, vary and extend the measure on ceramic tiles originating in the People’s Republic of China (PRC). This supersedes Taxation Notice 2020/18.

The public notice gives effect to the TRA’s recommendation to:

  • partially revoke the application of the anti-dumping duty on larger formats of tiles, specifically tiles where:
    • the largest surface area of which exceeds 0.36m² unless the differential relief on the largest surface exceeds 3mm
    • there is an edge longer than 600mm, unless the differential relief on the largest surface exceeds 3mm
  • vary the application of the anti-dumping duty in relation to ceramic tiles so that ‘finishing ceramics’ be added and ‘glazed and unglazed’ be removed from the description of the goods
  • extend the existing duty rate set out in Taxation Notice 2020/18: anti-dumping duty on ceramic tiles from People’s Republic of China (‘Taxation Notice 2020/18’) for a further 5 years, until 24th November 2027
