United States - Anti-Dumping Measures on Oil Country Tubular Goods (OCTG) from Mexico

On 18 February 2003, Mexico requested consultations with the US as regards several anti-dumping measures imposed by the US on imports of OCTG from Mexico, including the final determinations in some administrative and sunset reviews; and the US authorities’ determination regarding the continuation of the anti-dumping orders. In addition to these measures, Mexico’s request includes a number of laws, regulations and administrative practices (such as “zeroing”) used by the US authorities in the above determinations. Mexico considers that the above anti-dumping measures are incompatible with Articles 1, 2, 3, 6, 11 and 18 of the Anti-Dumping Agreement, Articles VI and X of the GATT 1994 and Article XVI:4 of the WTO Agreement.
