Imports of aluminium flat-rolled products originating in the People’s Republic of China are subject to definitive anti-dumping duties imposed by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1784 (2).

(2)

Alnan Aluminium Inc., TARIC (3) additional code C616, a company subject to an individual anti-dumping duty rate of 19,0 %, informed the Commission on 13 June 2022 that it had changed its English name to ALG Aluminium Inc.

(3)

The company requested the Commission to confirm that the change of its English denomination does not affect the right of the company to benefit from the individual anti-dumping duty rate applied to it under its previous English denomination.

(4)

The Commission examined the information supplied and concluded that the change of name was properly registered with the relevant authorities, and did not result in any new relationship with other groups of companies which were not investigated by the Commission.

(5)

Accordingly, this change of name does not affect the findings of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1784 and in particular the anti-dumping duty rate applicable to it.

(6)

The name change should take effect as of the date on which the company changed its name, i.e. 7 June 2022. The Commission requested the applicant to confirm whether this date was appropriate.

(7)

Given the considerations in the recitals above, the Commission considered it appropriate to amend Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1784 to reflect the changed name of the company previously attributed to TARIC additional code C616.

(8)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 15(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1036,
