Where the record stands
The September 2025 final findings recommend anti-dumping duties. The table lists 52.03% for residual producers; an implementing customs notification was not independently verified. Sources: [1] ¶
Response & qualifying evidence
XCMG argued against rejection of its whole response and proposed an adjustment. DGTR cited credit-term inconsistencies, omitted credit costs, untranslated payment advice and product-code mismatches. Sources: [1] ¶
What remains unestablished
A named XCMG rate of 52.03% actually imposed or collected; fraud or a safety defect.
The next verification
Verify any implementing Finance Ministry notification and later challenges.
Entity attribution
The respondent group includes Xuzhou import/export and associated crane-producing entities listed in the findings. Sources: [1] ¶
