Q: We have noticed that the Ministry of Commerce's website published a preliminary ruling on the anti-dumping investigation against imported dichlorodihydrogen silicon originating in Japan. Can you explain the relevant situation? A: In response to an application from the domestic industry, the Ministry of Commerce initiated an anti-dumping investigation against imported dichlorodihydrogen silicon from Japan on January 7, 2026. After filing the case, the Ministry of Commerce carried out investigations in strict accordance with relevant Chinese laws and regulations and relevant WTO rules. After investigation, preliminary evidence showed that imports of the investigated products had been dumped, that the relevant domestic industry had suffered material damage, and that there was a causal relationship between dumping and material damage. According to the relevant provisions of the “Anti-dumping Regulations of the People's Republic of China”, the Ministry of Commerce issued a preliminary ruling notice on the case on September 7, 2026, according to law, ruling that the Japanese company's dumping margin was 80.8% to 99.2%, and decided to implement temporary anti-dumping measures. China has always been cautious and restrained in the use of trade remedy measures, and has steadfastly upheld fair and free trade. In the next step, we will continue to carry out investigations in accordance with the law, fully protect the rights of all stakeholders, and make final decisions objectively and impartially based on the investigation results.
