The World Trade Organisation unveiled on 14 October 2015 its decision regarding a dispute in which Japan and the European Union had complained about Chinese use of anti-dumping duties on high-performance, seamless stainless steel tubes.

A WTO dispute panel had largely ruled against China in February 2015, but all three parties appealed, and the WTO's Appellate Body strengthened the case against China, reversing points where the panel had previously backed Beijing.
