Based on the initial investigation result, on September 30, 2022, the MOIT issued Decision No. 1991/QD-BCT regarding the application of temporary anti-dumping measures on the Subject Product. Accordingly, the anti-dumping tax rate imposed on the Subject Product from China is 21,4% for the products of chair and 35,2% for the products of the table. Additionally, the anti-dumping measure was excluded for products from Malaysia due to an insignificant proportion of investigated goods (less than 3%)
