FAQ

Common questions

Are Chinese solar cells under ADD?

Yes — anti-dumping duty has applied on solar cells from China, Thailand, Vietnam at various windows. Current rate depends on the producer. We check the latest DGTR notification per consignment.

Does ALMM List-II affect imports?

ALMM List-II governs solar module sourcing for projects from April 2026. If your end-buyer requires ALMM-listed modules, your import strategy changes — we model both pathways.
