Anti-dumping investigations by Argentina
According to reports, as a result of the discussions initiated by local producer Siderar's application back in September last year, the Argentine government has officially decided to open an investigation on imports of several
coated products. The products include
galvanized (both cold rolled and hot rolled based) and zinc-aluminium
coated steel sheet and
coated iron products imported from
Korea, South
Africa,
Russia,
Australia,
India and
Taiwan.
It is expected that the investigation cannot be completed in less than a year's time and any duty to be imposed will not be retroactively effective until the preliminary decision date.
