When entrepot trade encounters anti - dumping, the first step is to actively respond to the lawsuit. Enterprises can join forces with other affected enterprises in the industry to jointly hire a professional legal team and collect strong evidence, such as the product cost composition and price rationality, to prove that there is no dumping behavior. Secondly, optimize the supply chain, consider purchasing raw materials or components from regions with lighter or no anti - dumping measures, and change the determination of the product's country of origin. Thirdly, strengthen cooperation with importers and jointly seek solutions, such as adjusting product pricing and marketing strategies. In addition, one can also try to explore new markets and reduce dependence on the market where anti - dumping is encountered. Zhongshitong reminds that it is necessary to do a good job in trade compliance management in daily operations to ensure that the trade process complies with relevant regulations.

One can consider the method of transshipment through a third country. First, ship the goods to the third country, carry out operations such as container replacement and issue a certificate of origin of the third country, and then transship them to the destination country to avoid high anti - dumping duties, but pay attention to the compliance of the operation.
