Anti-Dumping Duty

1. For the manufacturers named in Table 14 of this document, duties are in the form of either:

• Normal Value (Value for Duty Equivalent) (NV(VFDE))¹ amounts per filter in the currency of the country of origin;
• Non-Injurious Free-On-Board (NIFOB)² amounts in New Zealand dollars (NZ$) per filter; or
• An ad valorem percentage rate for a named manufacturer where there is no reference price for a particular part number.

2. The NV(VFDE) and NIFOB amounts are reference prices which are compared to the VFD amount to establish if any duty is payable. Where exchange rate movements cause the NIFOB amount to exceed the NV(VFDE) amount the duty is based on the NV(VFDE) amount using an alternative rate.

For all "other manufacturers", i.e. those not listed in Table 14, from the above countries of origin a residual ad valorem percentage rate applies (See Table 13).

The rates of duty are shown in the following tables:
