The investigation started on the day of the publication of the circular in the Federal Official Gazette of Brazil, i.e. on July 20, 2012.
On January 15, 2014, the Brazilian authorities decided to impose a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of tires for motor cars from Chinese Taipei, Korea, Thailand and Ukraine (Resolução No. 1, 15.01.2014).
