TRA reviews anti-dumping duties on Chinese ceramic tableware and kitchenware

The Trade Remedies Authority has opened an interim review of the 13% to 36% anti-dumping duties on ceramic tableware and kitchenware from China, to test whether they are still enough.

The Trade Remedies Authority (TRA) started the review on its own initiative on 20 July 2026 (case IR0093). It says an interim review was the only route available because the current measure has been in place for less than a year. Existing anti-dumping duties range from 13% to 36%.

The TRA points to imports from China rising 22% between 2023 and 2025 despite the duties, while their unit value fell by up to 35% between 2022 and 2025. The review will look at whether the duties offset the dumping that injures UK producers, and whether they should change.

Businesses affected had until 4 August 2026 to register an interest on the case's public file.
