On July 5, 2022, the International Trade Commission (ITC) of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) made an affirmative preliminary determination in its injury investigation involving float glass, in sheets from Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand.

According to the affirmative preliminary determination, the ITC found that there is a reasonable indication that a Taiwan (ROC) industry is materially injured by reason of imports of float glass, in sheets from Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand that are alleged to be sold in Taiwan (ROC) at less than normal value.

Under the jurisdiction set forth in the Regulations Governing the Implementation of the Imposition of Countervailing and Antidumping Duties, the MOEA shall make an investigation, conducted by the ITC, as to whether there is any injury to a Taiwan (ROC) industry.  As a result of the MOEA's affirmative preliminary determination, the Ministry of Finance will continue to conduct a dumping investigation of imports of float glass, in sheets from Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand, and its preliminary determination will be made within 70 days (if not extended) after the next day of receipt of a notice of the foregoing determination.

The public version in Chinese of the preliminary injury investigation report is expected to be available after August 5, 2022 from ITC's website https://www.moeaitc.gov.tw.
