COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2026/2319

of 19 October 2026

amending Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/265 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of ceramic tiles originating in India and Türkiye

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2016/1036 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 June 2016 on protection against dumped imports from countries not members of the European Union (1), and in particular Article 14(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Imports of ceramic tiles originating in India and Türkiye are subject to definitive anti-dumping duties imposed by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/265 (2).

(2)

Varmora Granito Private Limited, TARIC (3) additional code A013, a company subject to the anti-dumping duty rate for cooperating, non-sampled companies of 7,3 %, informed the Commission on 19 March 2026 that it had changed its name to Varmora Granito Limited.

(3)

The company requested the Commission to confirm that the change of name did not affect the right of the company to benefit from the anti-dumping duty rate applied to it under its previous name.

(4)

The Commission examined the information supplied and concluded that the change of name was properly registered with the relevant authorities, and did not result in any new relationship with other groups of companies which were not investigated by the Commission.

(5)

Accordingly, this change of name does not affect the findings of Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/265 and in particular the anti-dumping duty rate applicable to the company.

(6)

The name change should take effect as of 14 May 2025. The evidence in the file also confirmed that the change of the name was applicable as of 14 May 2025, the day when the Ministry of Corporate Affairs issued the Certificate of Incorporation pursuant to the change of name.

(7)

Given the considerations in the recitals above, the Commission considered it appropriate to amend Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/265 to reflect the changed name of the company previously attributed to additional TARIC code A013.

(8)

The measures provided for in this regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 15(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/1036,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
