Committee on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures  Original: English  
 
 SUBSIDIES 
REQUEST FROM THE UNITED STAT ES TO CHINA PURSUANT TO  
ARTICLE 25.10 OF THE AGREEMENT 
The following communication, dated 15 October 2014, is being circulated at the request of the 
Delegation of the United States.  
_______________ 
  The United States notes that China has submitted only two subsidy notifications under 
Article XVI:1 of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (the GATT 1994) and 
Article 25.2 of the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures (the Agreement) in its 13 years of WTO Membership and has not notified any subsidies provided after 2008. China 
submitted its first notification (G/SCM/N/123/CHN)  in 2006; this notification covered the time 
period from 2001 to 2004. China submitted its second notification (G/SCM/N/155/CHN) in 2011; this notification covered the time period from 2005 to 2008. The United States and several other 
Members have expressed serious concerns about the lateness and incompleteness of these 
two notifications - including China’s failure to notify any subsidy measures at the sub-central levels of government - and have repeatedly requested th at China submit its overdue subsidy notifications 
under Article 25.2 of the Agreement for the periods subsequent to 2008. 
 
Three years ago, in 2011, the United States filed a submission under Article 25.10 of the Agreement (G/SCM/Q2/CHN/42) listing nearly 200 su bsidy measures that appeared as if they 
should have been notified by China. Although not required by the Agreement, translations of each 
of these measures were also made available.  While China has questioned whether all the measures 
in the Article 25.10 submission were properly included, China has not questioned the vast majority 
of the measures at issue and to date has not notified any of these uncontested measures. 
Repeated attempts to meet bila terally have proven fruitless. 
 In 2012, the United States invoked Article 25.8 of  the Agreement and made a written request for 
information on the nature and extent of numerous assistance programs granted or maintained by 
China (G/SCM/Q2/CHN/46). Despite its obligation under Article 25.9 of the Agreement to provide 
answers "as quickly as possible and in a comprehensive manner", China to date has not 
meaningfully responded to the United States’ request. In light of China’s failure to substantially 
respond, the United States sought out, collected copies of, and translated into English the measures that established or implemented the assistance programs addressed in the 
United States’ Article 25.8 request. These measures, listed below, were issued at both the central 
and sub-central levels of government in China. The United States considers that these measures, along with any other additional measures implementing them, should be subject to notification to the Committee on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures (the Committee) under Article XVI:1 of 
the GATT 1994 and Article 25.2 of the Agreement,  because they appear to provide specific 
subsidies within the meaning of Articles 1.1 and 2 of the Agreement. The United States requests 
that China notify these measures to the Committee under Article 25.10 of the Agreement. Should 
a notification not be made promptly, the United States reserves its right to raise the alleged 
subsidies for discussion at the next regular m eeting of the Committee. Although not required 
under the Agreement, the United States has made available English translations of each of the 
measures listed below.
