Trade investigations

Support of trade investigations — protecting the interests of national producers and foreign exporters and importers

What are trade investigations?

Trade investigations are procedures for protecting the domestic market from unfair or injurious imports. For a national producer they offer a way to defend against unfair competition, while for a foreign exporter or importer they mean the risk of additional duties that can be challenged or minimised. GOLAW represents the interests of both sides — Ukrainian producers as well as foreign exporters and importers — at every stage of the investigation.

What we do:

  • Support of trade investigations concerning producers in Ukraine
  • Protecting clients’ interests against unfair imports
  • Assessing the lawfulness of trade barriers and restrictive measures
  • Initiating investigations in the interests of national producers suffering injury from imports
  • Defending foreign producers, exporters and importers in investigations initiated in Ukraine
