BEIJING - Chinese sugar mills plan to ask the nation’s Ministry of Commerce to extend hefty tariffs on sugar imports that Beijing imposed in 2017 to protect China’s struggling domestic sector, according to two sources and a draft document viewed by Reuters.
Beijing’s trade measures on sugar imports, set to expire on May 21, 2020, “have played an effective role in safeguarding the interest of the domestic industry, and promoting healthy and stable development of the sector,” said the draft document that was dated Sept. 5. A source familiar with the matter confirmed that the industry group is consulting lawyers and experts, and drafting the application to be submitted to the government.
Separately, China Sugar Association will also look into the possibility of an anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigation into imported sugar products, according to a second draft document discussed at the Thursday meeting.
