If Vietnam businesses want to join the investigation they should send an Application for Participation to the KTC within three weeks.

Businesses which are not an object producer of investigation but still apply for participation will be imposed a weighted average of dumping rate according to the Republic of Korea’s Customs Act.

Those businesses which do not submit applications for participation or export products after the investigated period, the KTC may levy anti-dumping margins based on available information according to the Customs Act.

The KTC will send a questionaire to relevant businesses, producers and governments. They will have 40 days to answer these questions.
