Updated information
According to customs data, hot-rolled steel imports in 2024 reached 12.6 million tons, up more than 33% compared to 2023. Notably, after the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT) initiated an investigation into this case in July, 2024, the import volume of hot-rolled steel from China continued to rise significantly. Therefore, MOIT has considered applying temporary anti-dumping measures to prevent the rapid increase in hot-rolled steel imports, which could cause serious harm to the domestic manufacturing industry in the near future.
On February 21, 2025, MOIT issued Decision No. 460/QD-BCT on the application of temporary anti-dumping duties on certain hot-rolled steel products originating from the Republic of India (India) and the People's Republic of China (China). Accordingly, the temporary anti-dumping duty rate applied to investigated goods from China ranges from 19.38% to 27.83%, while goods from India are excluded from the temporary anti-dumping measure due to the insignificant share of investigated imports (less than 3%).
