Tuesday, 07 July 2026 14:56:27 (GMT+3)   |   Istanbul

The European Commission has announced the initiation of an expiry review of the antidumping duties on imports of certain hot-rolled flat products of iron, non-alloy or other alloy steel from Turkey.

Accordingly, the EC decided to launch the review after the EUROFER had submitted a request for a review on April 1, 2026, based on the fact that the expiry of the measures would be likely to result in continuation or recurrence of dumping and recurrence of injury to the EU industry. The review will cover the period between April 1, 2025, and March 31, 2026, and will be completed within 12 months.

The current dumping margins on the given products can be seen at the table below.
