DUMPING PROTECTION OF THE SINGLE MARKET THROUGH THE DUMPING TAX

Abstract

Liberalization of international trade is currently the goal of many countries in the world, as well as in the European Union. However, the EU does not give up the possibility to intervene and influence that specific area of imports of goods that liquidate or threaten to liquidate a certain industry in the EU. An instrument that does not conflict with liberal policy is the institution of anti-dumping duties, which is a legitimate means of restricting imports that harm certain EU production sectors. If we look at the history of the EU, we can say that the anti-dumping process is not a new one in the European markets, and the first legislation that regulated the introduction of anti-dumping duties in the EU was adopted in 1968. Anti-dumping duties are an integral part of trade policy, they are often perceived only as a means of "improving" incomes, but also as unilateral decisions of the EU authorities, which cannot be influenced in any way.
