Saudi Arabia opens anti-dumping probe into steel imports from China and Turkey
Saudi Arabia has opened an anti-dumping investigation into certain steel imports.
The probe covers hot-rolled light and medium sections, angles and structural shapes made of iron or steel.
The imports are from China and Turkey, either originating there or exported from those countries.
Anti-dumping investigations examine imports suspected of being sold at unfairly low prices.
Saudi Arabia’s trade-remedies system allows investigations and measures to protect local industry from harm caused by dumped or subsidised imports.
The inquiry is intended to assess possible harm to Saudi producers; no finding or penalty is announced in the information available.
The authority says the system also aims to guard against surges in imports and defend Saudi exports facing trade-remedy measures.
