BEIJING: Chinese solar panel maker LONGi Green Energy Technology Co Ltd said on Monday it will provide evidence to show it is complying with US laws after the US Department of Commerce found it to be circumventing tariffs.
The United States will impose new duties on imports from LONGi and three other Chinese solar panel makers, trade officials said on Friday, after an investigation found in a preliminary determination issued last week they were trying to dodge tariffs by finishing products in Southeast Asian countries.
"Next, the US Department of Commerce will conduct on-site audit in the next few months to verify the authenticity of the investigation information. During this period, we will actively provide evidence that shows we are compliant with US trade law and not circumventing," LONGi said in a statement sent to Reuters.
