ON APPLICATION OF PROVISIONAL ANTI-DUMPING DUTIES ON CERTAIN CLEAR FLOAT GLASS PRODUCTS ORIGINATING FROM THE REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA AND MALAYSIA
(Enclosed with Decision No. 228/QD-BCT dated January 30, 2026 of the Minister of Industry and Trade)

Goods subject to provisional anti-dumping duties are clear float glass products originating from the Republic of Indonesia and Malaysia, having the basic characteristics and classified under the following HS codes:

Float glass is flat glass manufactured by a horizontal drawing process, floating on the surface of molten metal. The float glass falling within the scope of goods subject to provisional anti-dumping duties is clear float glass; not wire-reinforced; not coated with an absorbent layer, a reflective layer or a non-reflective layer; and not optical glass that has not undergone optical processing.

Clear float glass products subject to provisional anti-dumping duties are classified under HS codes 7005.29.20 and 7005.29.90.

The Ministry of Industry and Trade may amend the list of HS codes of goods subject to provisional anti-dumping duties to ensure consistency with the description of the goods under investigation and other changes (if any).

Provisional anti-dumping duties shall take effect 15 (fifteen) days from the date of issuance of the Decision on application of provisional anti-dumping duties.

Provisional anti-dumping duties shall be applied for a duration of 120 (one hundred and twenty) days from the effective date (unless extended, modified or terminated in accordance with law).

a) Where the final conclusion of the investigating authority determines that there is material injury or a threat of material injury to the domestic industry, the Minister of Industry and Trade may decide to apply anti-dumping duties retroactively.

b) Anti-dumping duties may be applied retroactively to imported goods within ninety (90) days prior to the application of provisional anti-dumping duties if the imported goods are determined to be dumped; the volume or quantity of dumped imports into Viet Nam increases suddenly and significantly during the period from initiation of the investigation to the application of provisional anti-dumping duties; and such imports cause injury that is difficult to remedy to the domestic industry.

For the purpose of determining whether imported goods fall within the scope of application of anti-dumping duties, the customs authority shall inspect documents certifying the origin of goods and the manufacturer’s quality certificate.

Documents certifying the origin of goods include:

- Certificate of origin (C/O); or

- Self-certification of origin documents in accordance with:

- the Free Trade Agreement between the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (UKVFTA);

- the ASEAN Trade in Goods Agreement (ATIGA); or

- the Free Trade Agreement between the Government of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam and the Government of the State of Israel.

The manufacturer’s quality certificate (hereinafter collectively referred to as the manufacturer’s certificate) is a document issued by the manufacturer itself to certify that the product meets certain quality standards. For inspection purposes, the Ministry of Industry and Trade shall provide the customs authority with samples of manufacturer’s certificates supplied by the organizations and individuals listed in Column 1, Section 2 of this Notice.

- Case 1: If the customs declarant fails to submit documents certifying the origin of goods, the applicable anti-dumping duty rate shall be 63.39%.
