China is set to impose anti-dumping duties of more than 100% on Australian wine from this weekend, following a series of sweeping trade reprisals this year and further escalating tensions with Canberra.
The anti-dumping deposits will take effect Saturday and range from 107.1% to 212.1%, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce said in a statement Friday.
The duties come just three months after China started an anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigation into Australian wine, and follows a raft of other measures this year barring imports from coal to copper to barley.
