The Australian Government's guidance on applying for an investigation into anti-circumvention of duties, published in March 2020, primarily aims to assist individuals or organizations in filing applications when they suspect that anti-dumping or countervailing duty measures are being circumvented. This document is a crucial component of efforts to safeguard domestic industries from unfair trade practices.

The guidance includes detailed instructions on how to file applications, the evidence required, and the conditions for an application to be accepted. It also addresses common forms of circumvention. Additionally, the document clarifies the roles of stakeholders, including exporters, importers, and the government, in identifying and addressing instances of circumvention.
