The European Union has decided to impose high anti-dumping duties on Chinese vehicle tires. The European Commission made this decision due to the harm caused to European tire manufacturers by imports from China. The duty rates will vary depending on the manufacturer and will range from 4.3% to 45.3%. Tires produced by the South Korean manufacturer Hankook in China will be subject to a duty of 4.3%, while other Chinese manufacturers that cooperated in the investigation will face a duty of 24.4%, and those that did not cooperate, including Shandong Yongsheng Rubber Group, will face a duty of 45.3%.
