The WTO and some practical issues regarding anti-dumping investigation

Abstract

After joining WTO in 2007, Vietnam's export activities have been benefiting from preferential trade policies. However, in addition to these benefits, Vietnam's exports face many challenges since  more and more trade remedies are being applied, among which anti-dumping investigation and taxing are the most common measures. This article will focus on some practical issues that Vietnam has experienced and the future’s possibilities in the process of participating in and appealing against anti-dumping investigations by foreign governments regarding exported goods since 2007, when Vietnam officially became a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO). Through this analysis and assessment, the article will point out challenges and recommendations for Vietnamese industries.
