According to sources with knowledge of the plans, the European Commission has informed EU nations that it will continue to negotiate with China even after their votes on its proposal to establish ultimate import tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles.
According to the three options, the Commission, which is conducting an anti-subsidy research into EVs produced in China, has sent its plan for ultimate tariffs on these EVs to the 27 EU members who support levels that it determined in September. It has set the ballot for this Friday, they added.
It also contained a further words called a presentation that stated that discussions with China have not yet resolved the debate over alleged Chinese incentives but that negotiations on a potential compromise could continue even if EU nations consent to the tariff rates.
The European Commission made no comment.
Last Thursday, the China’s banking government announced that teams were negotiating a versatile price-commitment plan to avoid taxes. The Commission has stated that it could re-examine a price agreement, which usually involves a minimal import price and a volume cap, after initially rejecting offers from Chinese businesses.
The proposed tariffs range from 7.8 % for China-built Tesla EVs to 35.3 % for SAIC and other companies found not to have cooperated with the Commission’s investigation. They go above the EU’s regular 10 % car import work.
On Friday, EU people will vote on whether to support last or “definitive” tariffs for the following five years. They would n’t be implemented until a qualified majority of the 15 EU nations, which make up 65 % of the population, cast ballots against them.
A choice, which may need a second round of voting, has to be taken by October 30, the date set in the Union anti-subsidy research.
If comprehensive tariffs are imposed, temporary duties that date back to July would also need to be paid. Until the close of the EU research, companies can handle these with a bank guarantee.
