U.S. Commerce Department Sets Duties on Corrosion-Resistant Steel Imports
08/27/2025 - The U.S. Commerce Department has issued final determinations in a trade case involving corrosion-resistant steels from 10 countries, setting anti-dumping duties ranging from nearly 6% to 191.3%.
The determination applies to approximately $2.9 billion worth of exports of certain corrosion-resistant steels from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa, Taiwan, Türkiye, the United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam.
Countervailing duties range from zero to 16.8%.
“American steel companies and workers deserve to compete on a level playing field,” said Under Secretary of Commerce for International Trade William Kimmitt. “The rates announced today demonstrate that the Trump administration will vigorously enforce U.S. trade laws and will not tolerate unfairly traded goods in the U.S. marketplace.”
The case arose from a complaint filed in 2024 by American producers who argued that corrosion-resistant steels from the 10 countries were being unfairly traded in the U.S.
