EU Trade Defence Measure
Anti-dumping duty on plywood (birch and tropical hardwood faces) from China: 66%
The headline rate
The country-wide rate for plywood (birch and tropical hardwood faces) from China is 66% (named cooperating exporters as low as 9.6%), applied in addition to the MFN duty rate.
The legal basis
The duty is imposed by Reg. (EU) 2017/648 (renewed). Range is wide because named exporters have very different rates.
What products are covered
HS prefix: 4412. Origin: China.
Worked example: €50,000 customs value
Imagine you are importing €50,000 of plywood (birch and tropical hardwood faces) from China into PL. The MFN duty for the chapter is around 3.0%. With AD of 66% layered on top, the total customs duty rate is 69.0%.

| Customs duty (MFN + AD/CVD) (69.0%) | €34,500 |
| Import VAT | €19,435 |

What if you sourced elsewhere?
Most importers of measures-affected products discover the AD/CVD only when their first shipment clears customs at a 60%+ effective duty rate. The Import Plan Builder runs the same calculation against alternative origins (VN/IN/BD/TR) so you can see the saving before signing your first PO.
