Notice concerning the anti-dumping measures in force in respect of imports into the Union of ceramic tiles originating in the People's Republic of China: change of the name of a company subject to an average anti-dumping duty rate for cooperating companies

2012/C 119/06

Imports of ceramic tiles originating in the People's Republic of China are subject to a definitive anti-dumping duty, imposed by Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 917/2011 (1) (‘Regulation (EU) No 917/2011’).

Heyuan Wanfeng Ceramics Co., Ltd, a company located in the People's Republic of China, whose exports to the Union of ceramic tiles are subject to an average anti-dumping duty rate for cooperating companies of 30,6 % imposed pursuant to Article 1(2) of Regulation (EU) No 917/2011, has informed the Commission that on 28 September 2011 it has changed its name to Guangdong Luxury Micro-crystal Stone Technology Co., Ltd.

The company has argued that the change of name does not affect the right of the company to benefit from the average duty rate for cooperating companies applied to the company under its previous name of Heyuan Wanfeng Ceramics Co., Ltd.

The Commission has examined the information supplied and concluded that the change of name in no way affects the findings of Regulation (EU) No 917/2011. Therefore, the reference in Annex I to Regulation (EU) No 917/2011 to:

Heyuan Wanfeng Ceramics Co., Ltd

should be read as:

Guangdong Luxury Micro-crystal Stone Technology Co., Ltd.

The TARIC additional code B195 previously attributed to Heyuan Wanfeng Ceramics Co., Ltd shall apply to Guangdong Luxury Micro-crystal Stone Technology Co., Ltd.
