Indonesia's Anti-Dumping Committee (KADI) has announced the launch of an antidumping investigation into galvanized steel imports from China on September 15, 2026, following an application submitted by domestic producers PT Tata Metal Lestari and PT Arcelormittal Nippon Steel Indonesia.
China accounts for 81 percent of imports
According to KADI, its preliminary assessment identified sufficient evidence that increased Chinese imports had injured domestic producers. During 2023-2025, Indonesia imported 2.56 million mt of the products concerned, including 2.08 million mt from China, representing approximately 81 percent of the total.
Investigation may extend to 18 months
The investigation is scheduled to take up to 12 months, with a possible extension to 18 months, while relevant producers, exporters, importers and government representatives have been notified.
The products concerned fall under HS codes 7210.49.11, 7210.49.17, 7210.49.18, 7210.49.19, 7212.30.12, 7212.30.13, 7212.30.19, 7225.92.90 and 7225.99.90.
