Home News SIMA: Notice of initiation of investigations: Truck Bodies (TB 2025 IN)

Ottawa, 

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) initiated investigations on October 24, 2025, under the Special Import Measures Act, respecting the alleged injurious dumping and subsidizing of truck bodies originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China. The investigations follow a complaint filed by Morgan Canada Corporation, Bolton, Ontario, and Morgan Transit Corporation, Laval, Québec.

The subject goods are usually imported under the following tariff classification numbers:

  1. 8707.90.90.10
  2. 8707.90.90.39
  3. 8707.90.90.40
  4. 8707.90.90.90
  5. 8708.29.99.90

These tariff classification numbers may include non-subject goods, and subject goods may also fall under additional tariff classification numbers.

The product definition is contained in Appendix 1.

The CBSA will investigate whether the imports are being dumped and/or subsidized; and will make a preliminary decision within 90 days, at which time provisional duties may apply.

Additional information about the investigations will be provided in a Statement of Reasons that will be accessible within 15 days.
