China’s commerce ministry said on Tuesday it is raising “anti-dumping tariff rates” for some optical fibre products originating from the United States, effective on Wednesday, July 11.

The new anti-dumping tariff rates for dispersion unshifted single-mode optical fibre imported from the U.S. range between 33.3 per cent to 78.2 per cent, compared with 4.7 per cent to 18.6 per cent as set in 2011.

U.S. companies including Corning Inc, OFS Fitel, LLC and Draka Communications Americas Inc are among firms affected by the tariff change, the ministry said on its website.
