Welcome to the
Woodstock Consortium

Brussels, 14th May 2024. The Woodstock Consortium welcomes additional tariffs on all birch plywood arriving in the EU from Kazakhstan and Türkiye to address evasion of existing duties on Russian birch plywood. Published today, Regulation 2024/1287,1 extends anti-dumping duties to birch plywood imports from Kazakhstan and Türkiye. It does so not only with immediate, but also with retroactive effect. This follows an urgent EU investigation confirming significant bypassing of EU measures on these products through these two countries.
