The Ministry of Commerce of the People's Republic of China (MOFCOM) has published the final tariffs that will apply to European pork export companies for the next five years, effective as from tomorrow, 17 December.
Following the unfair competition investigation launched in 2024, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce has confirmed that it will apply tariffs of up to 19.8% on pork from the European Union (EU). The tariffs are significantly lower than the provisional ones announced by China last September, which were as high as 62.4%.
More specifically, according to the list of companies, the final rates are 4.98% for the Spanish company Litera Meat, 18.68% for the Danish company Danish Crown and 19.8% for the Dutch company Vion. Companies considered to be cooperating companies, which includes most Spanish companies, will also be charged a tariff of 9.8%. This represents a reduction of 50% compared to the provisional rate in force until now.
