Dumping is an unfair international trade practice occurring when an exporter sells products in a foreign market at prices below normal value (selling price in its domestic market or production cost plus reasonable profit). This practice can cause material injury to the importing country's industry. When dumping and injury are proven, the importing country can impose countervailing duties (antidumping duties) equal to the dumping margin. In Mexico, the Ministry of Economy investigates and resolves dumping cases.
