Besides the ordinary duty, the EU records these kinds of measure against this code. They are listed as signals only: whether one applies to your goods can depend on where they come from, who produced them, the exact product and the documents you present. No amounts are worked out here.
Trade-defence measures, such as anti-dumping duty, may apply to goods originating in any country; China; any country except China; Malaysia; Taiwan.
The duty depends on the producer or exporter, so two shipments of the same goods can be charged differently.
This is recorded on a more detailed code below this one, so it may not cover your goods.
