The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT), in Inquiry No. NQ‑2025‑009, has determined that the dumping of certain truck bodies originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China has caused injury to the Canadian domestic industry. As a result, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) will collect anti-dumping and countervailing duties on the subject goods.
The Tribunal defined the subject goods as truck bodies, whether assembled or unassembled, with an exterior length of 8.5 to 32 feet (inclusive) and a maximum exterior width of 103 inches, designed to be mounted on a truck chassis for the primary purpose of containing or supporting goods during on-road transportation. The definition includes insulated and non-insulated truck bodies, with or without refrigeration equipment, as well as truck body kits, assemblies, and subassemblies originating in or exported from China.
The following products are excluded from the scope of the finding:
- Truck bodies primarily designed for the bulk transportation of liquids or gases;
- Refuse truck bodies designed and constructed primarily for the collection, compaction, and transportation of solid waste used in municipal waste collection; and
- Truck bodies incorporating hydraulic or mechanical systems that allow the body to be elevated, tipped, or tilted for loading or unloading, including dump truck bodies used to transport bulk materials such as sand, gravel, and demolition debris, and flatbed tow truck bodies used to transport vehicles.
Subject goods are normally classified under the following tariff classification numbers:
- 8707.90.90.10
- 8707.90.90.39
- 8707.90.90.40
- 8707.90.90.90
- 8708.29.99.90
These tariff classification numbers are provided for reference only; the written product description governs the scope of the Tribunal’s finding.
