EU Registers Chinese Candle Imports Amid Anti-Dumping Probe

The European Commission has initiated registration of candle imports from China, citing potential dumping practices. This action, outlined in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/511, stems from an anti-dumping investigation launched in December 2024, following a complaint from EU candle producers.

The product subject to registration includes candles, tapers, and similar items classified under CN code 3406 00 00. This registration enables the EU to potentially impose retroactive anti-dumping duties if the investigation confirms dumping and resulting harm to EU producers.
