Introduction to the Global Antidumping Database

This website hosts a newly collected, detailed database on nineteen (as of version 2.0) different national governments’ use of the antidumping (AD) trade policy instrument, as well as all WTO members’ use of safeguard (SG) measures. The data collection project was funded by the Development Research Group of the World Bank and Brandeis University. While still preliminary, it goes beyond existing, publicly-used sets of antidumping data in a number of fundamental ways. It is a first attempt to use original source national government documentation to organize information on products, firms, the investigative procedure and outcomes of the historical use (since the 1980s) of the antidumping policy instrument across large importing country users. Data on SG investigations includes information on products, the investigative procedure and outcomes including details on the structure of measures (including exempted countries) of the policy’s 1995-2005 use by all WTO members. We also report more and recent data on a number of smaller users of AD, as well as some limited information on the use of countervailing measures from national governments that are users of countervailing measure (CVM) laws. Finally, we also provide matching information to data on challenges to AD, SG and CVM via the WTO’s Dispute Settlement Understanding (DSU).
