The US Department of Commerce has revealed its final ruling in a case filed by Boeing accusing Canadian plane maker Bombardier of intentionally introducing its C-Series aircraft into the US market at prices the government considers too low.
In the ruling, the department has upheld its previous finding that seeks to impose nearly 300% duty on the import of Bombardier’s C-Series aircraft configured with 100-150 seats from Canada.
The ruling is based on the antidumping duty (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) investigations of 100-150-seat large civil aircraft from Canada to the US.
During the investigations, the US authority has found that exporters from Canada sold large civil aircraft in the US at 79.82% less than fair value.
It was also found that the Government of Canada provided unfair subsidies to Bombardier at a rate of 212.39%.
Based on the latest ruling, the US is planning to instruct the country’s Customs and Border Protection to collect cash deposits from importers of 100-150-seat large civil aircraft based on the final rates.
