Thailand considers the USDOC's use of this practice of “zeroing” in the Final Determination the Amended Final Determination and the Order to be inconsistent with the obligations of the United States under Article VI of the GATT 1994 and in particular under Article 2.4.2 of the Anti-Dumping Agreement.

United States - Section 129(c)(1) of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act
On 17 January 2001 Canada requested consultations with the US concerning Section 129(c)(1) of the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (the “URAA”) and the Statement of Administrative Action accompanying the URAA. In Canada’s view in a situation in which the DSB has ruled that the US has in an anti-dumping or countervailing duty proceeding acted inconsistently with US obligations under the AD or SCM Agreements the US law prohibits the US from complying fully with the DSB ruling. Under US law determinations whether to levy anti-dumping or countervailing duties are made after the imports occur. With regard to imports that occurred prior to a date on which the US directs compliance with the DSB ruling the measures require US authorities to disregard the DSB ruling in making such determinations even where the determination whether to levy anti-dumping or countervailing duties is made after the date fixed by the DSB for compliance. In such circumstances determinations by the US to levy anti-dumping or countervailing duties would be inconsistent with its obligations under the AD or SCM Agreements. Canada considered that these measures are inconsistent with US obligations under Article 21.3 of the DSU in the context of Articles 3.1 3.2 3.7 and 21.1 of the DSU; Article VI of the GATT 1994; Articles 10 and note 36 19.2 19.4 and note 51 21.1 32.1 32.2 32.3 and 32.5 of the SCM Agreement; Articles 1 9.3 11.1 18.1-4 and note 12 of the AD Agreement; and Article XVI:4 of the WTO Agreement.

Korea considered that several errors were made by the US in those determinations which resulted in erroneous findings and deficient conclusions as well as the imposition calculation and collection of anti-dumping margins which are incompatible with the obligation of the US under the provisions of the Anti-Dumping Agreement and Article VI of GATT 1994 and in particular but not necessarily exclusively Article 2 Article 6 and Article 12 of the Anti-Dumping Agreement. Korea believed that the US did not act in conformity with the cited provisions among others in its treatment of the following: certain US sales made to a bankrupt company; the calculation of two distinct exchange rate periods for export sales; and currency conversion for certain normal value sales made in US dollars.

On 3 April 2000 Pakistan requested consultations with the US in respect of a transitional safeguard measure applied by the United States as of 17 March 1999 on combed cotton yarn (United States category 301) from Pakistan (see US Federal Register of 12 March 1999 document 99-6098). In accordance with Article 6.10 of the Agreement on Textiles and Clothing (ATC) the United States had notified the TMB on 5 March 1999 that it had decided to unilaterally impose a restraint after consultations as to whether the situation called for a restraint had failed to produce a mutually satisfactory solution. In April 1999 the TMB examined the US restraint pursuant to Article 6.10 of the ATC and recommended that the US restraint should be rescinded. On 28 May 1999 in accordance with Article 8.10 of the ATC the United States notified the TMB that it considered itself unable to conform to the recommendations issued by the TMB. Despite a further recommendation of the TMB pursuant to Article 8.10 of the ATC that the United States reconsider its position the United States continued to maintain its unilateral restraint and thus the matter remained unresolved. Pakistan claimed as follows: the transitional safeguards applied by the United States are inconsistent with the United States’ obligations under Articles 2.4 of the ATC and not justified by Article 6 of the ATC; the US restraint does not meet the requirements for transitional safeguards set out in paragraphs 2 3 4 and 7 of Article 6 of the ATC.
