Thailand Investigates Claims of Chinese Aluminium Dumping
Thailand's Foreign Trade Department has initiated an investigation into accusations of aluminium dumping by China. This is due to complaints from local steel manufacturers who argue the surge in aluminium imports is impacting domestic production negatively. Thailand's acting Commerce Minister Phumtham Wechayachai says the investigation is part of a wider strategy to deal with the influx of Chinese goods into the country. A source from the ministry, who chose to remain anonymous, said Phumtham is instructing relevant agencies to put in place policies and measures to protect local industries. The Commerce Ministry is actively pursuing trade remedies, which include antidumping actions, measures to counterbalance duties (countervailing duty measures) and safeguards. These primarily involve higher customs taxes and imposing antidumping duties on steel products imported from numerous countries, such as China, Taiwan, Japan, the European Union, South Korea, and Vietnam. Phumtham, who chairs the Antidumping and Countervailing Committee, has made a provisional positive decision in the investigation of aluminium imports from China. The probe is expected to last nine months. If it verifies dumping, the ministry will impose an anti-dumping tax on these imports for a period of five years, subject to review. According to the Bangkok Post, if dumping continues past the initial five years, these duties could be extended for an additional five years, based on current regulations. Phumtham notes that since 2023, Thailand has implemented anti-dumping taxes in 20 instances, primarily regarding steel products. This was done to protect local operators and lessen the impact of the US-China trade war. "As the trade war continues, local steel operators are worried about Chinese steel products being dumped in Thailand and the wider Southeast Asia region as China looks for other markets to compensate for decreasing steel exports to the US caused by imposed tariffs," said Phumtham. Besides the 20 instances where the anti-dumping tax has already been put in place, the Thai government is considering extending it to cold-reduced carbon steel, china's coiled and uncoiled, and other products like hot-rolled steel sheets, steel tubes, and pipes from China, South Korea, and Taiwan.

Thailand Visa Exemption (60 days) and Visa On Arrival (VOA) (15 days)
Hi all. Read through this thread but didn't find the answers... I have always come to Thailand on a 60 day SETV and extended by 30 days. Is it just a case of now buying my return flight and turn up at the airport ? Do i need any of the old documents with me that would have been uploaded to the Thai Visa site, like rental agreement etc ? -

Do you hold hands with your paid companion?
Holding hands is not a big thing in Thai culture, some go arm in arm. I prefer privacy for displays of affection. -
