Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation requires that the change in the pattern of trade stems from a practice, process or work for which there is insufficient due cause or economic justification other than the imposition of the duty.
V skladu s členom 13(1) osnovne uredbe morajo spremembo vzorca trgovanja povzročiti praksa, postopek ali dejavnost, za katere razen uvedbe dajatve ni zadostnega vzroka ali ni gospodarsko utemeljena.
The Commission takes the view that in the present case, the change in the pattern of trade stems from the consignment of the product subject to measures via a third country.
Komisija meni, da je v tem primeru sprememba vzorca trgovanja nastala zaradi pošiljanja izdelka, za katerega veljajo ukrepi, prek tretje države.
The Commission first of all notes that there is no production of silicon in Taiwan.
Komisija najprej ugotavlja, da v Tajvanu ni proizvodnje silicija.
None of the producers/exporters have denied the fact that they import the silicon they export from the PRC.
Nobeden od proizvajalcev/izvoznikov ni zanikal dejstva, da uvažajo silicij, ki ga izvažajo iz LRK.
Secondly, with the exception of the Group of exporters, the producers/exporters have not provided any economic justification other than the imposition of the duty for their activity.
Drugič, z izjemo skupine izvoznikov proizvajalci/izvozniki razen uvedbe dajatve na njihovo dejavnost niso navedli nobene gospodarske utemeljitve.
The Group of exporters alleged that they import silicon lumps of very low quality in bags from the PRC.
Skupina izvoznikov je trdila, da iz LRK v vrečah uvažajo grudice silicija zelo slabe kakovosti.
They claim that the silicon lumps are then tumbled, crushed, sieved and packed in bags again before being exported to the Union market.
Navedla je, da so grudice silicija nato pred izvozom na trg Unije prečiščene, zdrobljene, presejane in ponovno zapakirane v vreče.
After that operation, they alleged that the product is of a higher quality.
Po tem postopku je izdelek po navedbah boljše kakovosti.
They claim that this operation constitutes a unique purification method, developed in cooperation with the University of Taipei, which allegedly eliminates 80 % of the impurities in the silicon metal lumps imported from the PRC.
Skupina izvoznikov trdi, da je ta postopek enkratna metoda prečiščevanja, razvita v sodelovanju z univerzo v Tajpeju, ki domnevno odpravlja 80 % nečistoč v grudicah silicijeve kovine, uvožene iz LRK.
During the onsite verification, it was however observed that their process was a simple tumbling, sieving and crushing operation which removes some surface impurities such as oxidation and dust, but which did not remove in particular the main impurities inside the silicon lumps.
Vendar je bilo med preverjanjem na kraju samem ugotovljeno, da je bil njihov proces preprost postopek prečiščevanja, presejanja in drobljenja, s katerim so odstranili nekatere površinske nečistoče, kot sta oksidacija in prah, niso pa odpravili zlasti glavnih nečistoč znotraj silicijevih grudic.
The processed product thus kept the same physical and technical basic characteristics as the product concerned.
Predelani izdelek je zato ohranil enake osnovne fizikalne in tehnične lastnosti kot zadevni izdelek.
The evidence collected and verified during the investigation, in particular the purchase invoices, the sales invoices and the accompanying documents such as the bill of lading, and other customs documents, showed that the products purchased and sold for export by the Group of exporters were in most cases of the same specifications.
Med preiskavo zbrani in preverjeni dokazi, zlasti računi o nakupu, računi o prodaji in spremni dokumenti, kot so enotni tovorni list in drugi carinski dokumenti, so pokazali, da so imeli izdelki, ki jih je skupina izvoznikov kupila in prodala za izvoz, v večini primerov enake specifikacije.
The records relating to the stocks in the warehouses of the Group, located close to harbours, also showed that there was not always time to process all batches of silicon purchased in the PRC with the method that they claimed to apply.
Iz evidence zalog v skladiščih skupine, ki so blizu pristanišč, je tudi razvidno, da ni bilo vedno dovolj časa za obdelavo vseh pošiljk silicija, kupljenega v LRK, z metodo, za katero skupina trdi, da jo je uporabljala.
Furthermore, the information available, in particular from producers in the Union, shows that in order to remove the inner impurities of the silicon lump, either a crushing followed by a chemical treatment or a melting process is necessary.
Poleg tega razpoložljive informacije, zlasti od proizvajalcev v Uniji, kažejo, da je za odstranitev notranjih nečistoč iz grudic silicija potrebno drobljenje, ki mu sledi kemična obdelava, ali postopek taljenja.
Neither of those processes has been used by the Group of exporters.
Skupina izvoznikov ni uporabila nobenega od teh procesov.
It is also noteworthy that in 2010, acting upon a reference for a preliminary ruling under Article 234 of the Treaty establishing the European Community (now Article 267 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union) from Finanzgericht Düsseldorf (Hoesch Metals and Alloys GmbH v Hauptzollamt Aachen), in a matter relating to the antidumping measures against silicon from the PRC, the Court of Justice ruled: ‘The separation, crushing and purification of silicon metal blocks and the subsequent sieving, sorting and packaging of the silicon grains resulting from the crushing, as carried out in the main proceedings, do not constitute origin-conferring processing or working for the purposes of Article 24 of the Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 of 12 October 1992 establishing the Community Customs Code.’ [7] The purification process as carried out by the Group of exporters is considered to be similar to the one as described in that ruling.
Omeniti je treba tudi, da je Sodišče leta 2010 v okviru predloga v predhodno odločanje v skladu s členom 234 Pogodbe o ustanovitvi Evropske skupnosti [sedaj člen 267 Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije], ki ga je predložilo finančno sodišče Finanzgericht Düsseldorf (Hoesch Metals and Alloys GmbH proti Hauptzollamt Aachen), v zadevi v zvezi s protidampinškimi ukrepi za silicij iz LRK razsodilo: „Ločevanje, drobljenje in čiščenje silicijevih blokov ter nadaljnje presejanje, razvrščanje in pakiranje silicijevih kristalov, ki so nastali z drobljenjem, kot so bili opravljeni v zadevi, ki se obravnava v glavni stvari, se ne štejejo za predelavo ali obdelavo, na podlagi katere se dodeli poreklo blaga v smislu člena 24 Uredbe Sveta (EGS) št. 2913/92 z dne 12. oktobra 1992 o carinskem zakoniku Skupnosti.“ [7] Proces prečiščevanja, kakor ga izvaja skupina izvoznikov, šteje za podobnega procesu, opisanemu v navedeni sodbi.
The investigation also revealed that the purification process amounts to less than 5 % of the total cost of the Group of exporters.
Preiskava je tudi pokazala, da proces prečiščevanja znaša manj kot 5 % skupnih stroškov skupine izvoznikov.
It was furthermore confirmed that the price of the silicon sold into the Union by the Group and the price of the silicon purchased in the PRC by the Group during the IP, never showed a difference of more than 11 %.
Poleg tega je bilo potrjeno, da razlika v ceni med silicijem, ki ga je skupina izvoznikov prodala v Unijo, in silicijem, ki ga je skupina v OP kupila v LRK, ni bila nikoli večja od 11 %.
In the light of those considerations, it is concluded that also for the Group of exporters the import from the PRC and the subsequent export to the Union of the Silicon is to be considered as a transhipment and thus circumvention in the sense of Article 13 of the Basic Regulation.
Na podlagi teh premislekov se sklene, da se tudi za skupino izvoznikov uvoz silicija iz LRK in njegov poznejši izvoz v Unijo šteje za pretovarjanje in posledično za izogibanje v smislu člena 13 osnovne uredbe.
It is therefore concluded that the investigation did not bring to light any other due cause or economic justification for the transhipment than the avoidance of the measures in force on the product concerned, namely the 19 % anti-dumping duty on the PRC.
Zato je bilo sklenjeno, da s preiskavo ni bil ugotovljen noben drug vzrok ali gospodarska utemeljitev za pretovarjanje razen izogibanja veljavnim ukrepom za zadevni izdelek, in sicer 19 % protidampinški dajatvi za LRK.
No elements were found, other than the duty, which could be considered as a compensation for the costs of transhipment, in particular regarding transport and reloading, of silicon originating in the PRC via Taiwan.
Razen dajatve ni bilo nikakršnih elementov, ki bi se lahko šteli za nadomestilo za stroške pretovarjanja, še zlasti glede prevoza in natovarjanja silicija s poreklom iz LRK prek Tajvana.
In accordance with Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation it was examined whether there was evidence of dumping in relation to the normal value established in the original investigation.
V skladu s členom 13(1) osnovne uredbe je bilo preučeno, ali obstajajo dokazi o dampingu v zvezi z normalno vrednostjo, določeno v prvotni preiskavi.
In the original Regulation, the normal value was established on the basis of prices in Brazil, which in that investigation was found to be an appropriate market economy analogue country for the PRC.
V prvotni uredbi je bila normalna vrednost določena na podlagi cen v Braziliji, za katero je bilo v navedeni preiskavi ugotovljeno, da je ustrezna primerljiva država s tržnim gospodarstvom za LRK.
Two PCNs from the previous investigation matched with the two PCNs of the exporting companies.
Dve kontrolni številki proizvodov iz prejšnje preiskave sta se ujemali s kontrolnima številkama proizvodov izvoznih družb.
Export prices were established in accordance with Article 2(8) of the basic Regulation, namely the prices actually paid or payable for export of the product under investigation into the Union.
Izvozne cene so bile določene v skladu s členom 2(8) osnovne uredbe, in sicer na podlagi dejansko plačanih ali plačljivih cen za izvoz izdelka v preiskavi v Unijo.
For the purpose of a fair comparison between the normal value and the export price, due allowance in the form of adjustments was made for differences which affect prices and price comparability, in accordance with Article 2(10) of the basic Regulation.
Za pošteno primerjavo med normalno vrednostjo in izvozno ceno je bila vrednost ustrezno popravljena s prilagoditvami za razlike, ki vplivajo na cene in primerljivost cen, v skladu s členom 2(10) osnovne uredbe.
Accordingly, adjustments were made to the export price for transport and insurance in order to bring prices at the same level of trade.
V skladu s tem so bile opravljene prilagoditve za izvozno ceno prevoza in zavarovanja, da bi cene dvignili na raven trgovanja.
In accordance with Article 2(11) and 2(12) of the basic Regulation, dumping was calculated by comparing the adjusted weighted average normal value as established in the original Regulation and the corresponding weighted average export prices of the Taiwanese import during this investigation’s RP, expressed as a percentage of the CIF price at the Union frontier duty unpaid.
V skladu s členom 2(11) in (12) osnovne uredbe je bil damping izračunan na podlagi primerjave tehtane povprečne normalne vrednosti, kot je bila določena v prvotni uredbi, in ustreznih tehtanih povprečnih izvoznih cen za uvoz iz Tajvana v obdobju poročanja te preiskave ter izražen kot odstotni delež cene CIF meja Unije brez plačane dajatve.
The comparison of the weighted average normal value and the weighted average export price as established in the investigation showed the existence of dumping.
Primerjava tehtane povprečne normalne vrednosti in tehtane povprečne izvozne cene, kot je bila ugotovljena v preiskavi, je pokazala obstoj dampinga.
Undermining the remedial effects of the anti-dumping duty in terms of prices and quantities
Slabitev popravljalnih učinkov protidampinške dajatve v smislu cen in količin
The comparison of the injury elimination level as established in the original Regulation and the weighted average export price showed the existence of undercutting and underselling.
Primerjava stopnje odprave škode, kot je bila določena v prvotni uredbi, s tehtano povprečno izvozno ceno je pokazala nelojalno nižanje prodajnih in ciljnih cen.
It was therefore concluded that the remedial effects of the measures in force are being undermined in terms of prices and quantities.
Zato je bilo sklenjeno, da je popravljalni učinek veljavnih ukrepov oslabljen v smislu cen in količin.
Given the above, it was concluded that the original measure, namely the definitive anti-dumping duty imposed on imports of silicon originating in the PRC, was circumvented by transhipment via Taiwan within the meaning of Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation.
Glede na navedeno je bilo sklenjeno, da se je prvotnemu ukrepu, namreč dokončni protidampinški dajatvi, uvedeni na uvoz silicija s poreklom iz LRK, izogibalo s pretovarjanjem prek Tajvana v smislu člena 13(1) osnovne uredbe.
In accordance with the first sentence of Article 13(1) of the basic Regulation, the measures in force on imports of the product concerned are to be extended to imports of the product under investigation, i.e. the same product as the product concerned but consigned from Taiwan, whether declared as originating in Taiwan or not.
V skladu s prvim stavkom člena 13(1) osnovne uredbe je treba veljavne ukrepe za uvoz zadevnega izdelka razširiti na uvoz izdelka v preiskavi, torej enak izdelek kot zadevni izdelek, vendar poslan iz Tajvana, ne glede na to, ali je deklariran kot izdelek s poreklom iz Tajvana ali ne.
The measures established in Article 1(2) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 467/2010 for ‘all other companies’ from the PRC, should therefore be extended to imports from Taiwan.
Ukrepe, določene v členu 1(2) Izvedbene uredbe (EU) št. 467/2010 za „vse druge družbe“ iz LRK, bi bilo zato treba razširiti na uvoz iz Tajvana.
The level of duty should be set at 19 % applicable to the net, free-at-Union-frontier price, before duty.
Določiti bi bilo treba 19 % stopnjo dajatve, ki bi se uporabljala za neto ceno franko meja Unije pred plačilom dajatve.
In accordance with Articles 13(3) and 14(5) of the basic Regulation, which provide that any extended measure should apply to imports which entered the Union under registration imposed by the initiating Regulation, duties should be collected on those registered imports of silicon consigned from Taiwan.
V skladu s členom 13(3) in členom 14(5) osnovne uredbe, ki določata, da je treba vse razširjene ukrepe uporabljati za uvoz, ki je vstopil v Unijo pod registracijo, uvedeno z uredbo o začetku preiskave, je treba pobrati dajatve na navedeni registrirani uvoz silicija, poslanega iz Tajvana.
As explained in recital 10, three companies located in Taiwan, belonging to one group, submitted exemption form responses requesting an exemption from the possible extended measures in accordance with Article 13(4) of the basic Regulation.
Kot je pojasnjeno v uvodni izjavi 10, so tri družbe s sedežem v Tajvanu, ki pripadajo eni skupini, predložile izpolnjene obrazce zahtevkov za izvzetje iz morebitnih razširjenih ukrepov v skladu s členom 13(4) osnovne uredbe.
In view of the findings with regard to the change in the pattern of trade, the lack of real production in Taiwan and the export under the same customs code as set out in recitals 19 to 29, the exemptions as requested by those three companies could not be granted, in accordance with Article 13(4) of the basic Regulation.
Glede na ugotovitve v zvezi s spremembo vzorca trgovanja, pomanjkanje dejanske proizvodnje v Tajvanu in izvoz pod enako carinsko oznako, kot je navedeno v uvodnih izjavah 19 do 29, izjem, kot so jih zahtevale te tri družbe, ni bilo mogoče odobriti v skladu s členom 13(4) osnovne uredbe.
Without prejudice to Article 11(3) of the basic Regulation, the potential exporters/producers in Taiwan which did not come forward in this proceeding and did not export the product under investigation during the IP, which intend to lodge a request for an exemption from the extended anti-dumping duty pursuant to Articles 11(4) and 13(4) of the basic Regulation will be required to complete an exemption form in order to enable the Commission to assess such a request.
Brez poseganja v člen 11(3) osnovne uredbe bodo morali potencialni izvozniki/proizvajalci v Tajvanu, ki se niso javili v tem postopku, ki v OP niso izvažali izdelka v preiskavi in ki nameravajo vložiti zahtevek za izvzetje iz razširjene protidampinške dajatve v skladu s členom 11(4) in členom 13(4) osnovne uredbe, izpolniti obrazec za izvzetje, da Komisiji omogočijo oceno takega zahtevka.
Such exemption may be granted after the assessment of the market situation, production capacity and capacity utilisation, procurement and sales and the likelihood of continuation of practices for which there is insufficient due cause or economic justification and the evidence of dumping.
Tako izvzetje se lahko odobri po oceni razmer na trgu, proizvodne zmogljivosti in izkoriščenosti zmogljivosti, naročil in prodaje, verjetnega nadaljevanja praks, za katere ni zadostnega vzroka ali niso gospodarsko utemeljene, ter dokazov o dampingu.
Where an exemption is warranted, the Commission may, after consulting the Advisory Committee, authorise by decision, the exemption of imports from companies which do not circumvent the anti-dumping measures imposed by Implementing Regulation (EU) No 467/2010, from the duty extended by this Regulation.
Kadar je izvzetje upravičeno, lahko Komisija po posvetovanju s svetovalnim odborom s sklepom odobri izvzetje uvoza družb, ki se ne izogibajo protidampinškim ukrepom, uvedenim z Izvedbeno uredbo (EU) št. 467/2010, iz dajatve, razširjene s to uredbo.
The request should be addressed to the Commission, with all relevant information, in particular any modification in the company’s activities linked to the production and sales.
Zahtevek bi bilo treba nasloviti na Komisijo, in sicer z vsemi pomembnimi informacijami, zlasti o vsaki spremembi dejavnosti družbe, povezani s proizvodnjo in prodajo.
All interested parties were informed of the essential facts and considerations leading to the above conclusions and were invited to comment.
Vse zainteresirane strani so bile obveščene o bistvenih dejstvih in premislekih, ki so pripeljali do navedenih ugotovitev, ter bile pozvane, da predložijo pripombe.
They were also granted a period to submit comments subsequent to that disclosure.
Po tem razkritju jim je bilo odobreno tudi obdobje za predložitev pripomb.
COMMENTS
PRIPOMBE
Following disclosure, comments were received from the Group of exporters and from two importers.
Po razkritju so skupina izvoznikov in dva uvoznika predložili pripombe.
The main argument concerned the claim that the purification carried out by the Group of exporters was origin-conferring in the sense of Article 24 of Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92.
Glavni argument je bila trditev, da je prečiščevanje, ki ga izvaja skupina izvoznikov, tako, da lahko določi poreklo v smislu člena 24 Uredbe (EGS) št. 2913/92.
The importers presented a report concerning sample tests performed by the University of Taipei and an analysis report by an independent expert.
Uvozniki so predložili poročilo o vzorčnih testih, ki jih je opravila univerza v Tajpeju, in analizo neodvisnega strokovnjaka.
The report concerning sample tests shows a percentage of slag reduction of 90,8 % after the purification process.
Poročilo o vzorčnih testih kaže, da se je po procesu prečiščevanja odstotni delež žlindre zmanjšal za 90,8 %.
The analysis by the independent expert claims that after purification only, the silicon can be used for certain melting purposes.
Neodvisni strokovnjak v svoji analizi trdi, da je silicij samo po prečiščevanju mogoče uporabiti za nekatere postopke taljenja.
It is noted that those two studies are contradicted by the findings of the Commission during the onsite verification, as described in recital 31.
Opozoriti je treba, da tema dvema študijama nasprotujejo ugotovitve Komisije v okviru preverjanja na kraju samem, kot je opisano v uvodni izjavi 31.
In particular, it is recalled that according to the invoices, the products purchased and sold for export by the Group of exporters were in most cases of the same specifications.
Zlasti je treba opozoriti, da so imeli glede na račune izdelki, ki jih je skupina izvoznikov kupila in prodala za izvoz, v večini primerov enake specifikacije.
If the claims made by the importers were true, this should also result in a much higher difference between the price at which the silicon is imported from PRC and the price at which the silicon is exported to the Union.
Če bi bile trditve uvoznikov resnične, bi se to moralo poznati tudi na veliko večji razliki v ceni med silicijem, uvoženim iz LRK, in silicijem, izvoženim v Unijo.
Based on the onsite inspection of the tools used for the alleged purification of the silicon, the Commission also concludes that the tools are not such as to allow for any of the two methods of purification described in recital 31.
Na podlagi preverjanja orodja, uporabljenega za domnevno prečiščevanje silicija, na kraju samem Komisija tudi ugotavlja, da to orodje ne omogoča nobene od dveh metod prečiščevanja, opisanih v uvodni izjavi 31.
Finally, the analysis report by the independent expert also ignores the fact known to the Commission that the users process their silicon before use.
Poročilo, ki vsebuje analizo neodvisnega strokovnjaka, poleg tega ne upošteva Komisiji znanega dejstva, da uporabniki pred uporabo silicij predelajo.
For those reasons, the comments submitted by the parties have not been such as to alter the conclusions provisionally reached by the Commission before disclosure,
Zaradi teh razlogov pripombe, ki so jih predložile strani, niso bile takšne, da bi spremenile sklepe, ki jih je Komisija začasno sprejela pred razkritjem –
The definitive anti-dumping duty applicable to ‘all other companies’ imposed by Article 1(2) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 467/2010 on imports of silicon currently falling within CN code 28046900 and originating in the People’s Republic of China, is hereby extended to imports of silicon consigned from Taiwan, whether declared as originating in Taiwan or not, currently falling within CN code ex28046900 (TARIC code 2804690020).
Dokončna protidampinška dajatev, ki se uporablja za „vse druge družbe“, uvedena s členom 1(2) Izvedbene uredbe (EU) št. 467/2010, na uvoz silicija, ki se trenutno uvršča pod oznako KN 28046900 s poreklom iz Ljudske republike Kitajske, se razširi na uvoz silicija, poslanega iz Tajvana, ne glede na to, ali je deklariran kot izdelek s poreklom iz Tajvana ali ne, ki se trenutno uvršča pod oznako KN ex28046900 (oznaka TARIC 2804690020).
The duty extended by paragraph 1 of this Article shall be collected on imports consigned from Taiwan, whether declared as originating in Taiwan or not, registered in accordance with Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2012 and Articles 13(3) and 14(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1225/2009.
Dajatev, razširjena z odstavkom 1 tega člena, se pobira na uvoz, poslan iz Tajvana, ne glede na to, ali je deklariran kot izdelek s poreklom iz Tajvana ali ne, ki je registriran v skladu s členom 2 Uredbe (EU) št. 596/2012 ter členom 13(3) in členom 14(5) Uredbe (ES) št. 1225/2009.
Requests for exemption from the duty extended by Article 1 shall be made in writing in one of the official languages of the European Union and must be signed by a person authorised to represent the entity requesting the exemption.
Zahtevki za izvzetje iz dajatve, razširjene s členom 1, se predložijo v pisni obliki v enem od uradnih jezikov Evropske unije, podpisati pa jih mora oseba, pooblaščena za zastopanje subjekta, ki zaprosi za izvzetje.
