amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/73 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty and definitively collecting the provisional duty imposed on imports of electric bicycles originating in the People’s Republic of China


THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,


Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/1036 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Union (1), and in particular Article 14(1) thereof,

Whereas:

Imports of electric bicycles originating in the People’s Republic of China are subject to definitive anti-dumping duties imposed by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/73 (2).

Jinhua Enjoycare Motive Technology Co., Ltd., TARIC (3) additional code C419, a company subject to an anti-dumping duty rate of 24,2 % for ‘Other cooperating companies in the anti-dumping investigation (with the exception of the companies subject to the parallel countervailing duty rate for all other companies Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/72)’, informed the Commission on 21 November 2022 that it had changed its name to Enjoycare Technology (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd.












(3)


The company requested the Commission to confirm that the change of name does not affect the right of the company to benefit from the anti-dumping duty rate applied to it under its previous name.












(4)


The Commission examined the information supplied and concluded that the change of name was properly registered with the relevant authorities and did not result in any new relationship with other groups of companies which were not investigated by the Commission.












(5)


Accordingly, this change of name does not affect the findings of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/73 and in particular the anti-dumping duty rate applicable to it.












(6)


The name change should take effect as of the date on which the company changed its name, i.e. 22 September 2022. The Commission requested the applicant to confirm whether this date was appropriate.












(7)


Given the considerations in the recitals above, the Commission considered it appropriate to amend Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/73 to reflect the changed name of the company previously attributed to additional TARIC code C419.












(8)
