Mexico Extends Tariffs on China CRC and Other Steel Products
Written by Sandy Williams
Mexico announced it will enforce tariffs on imports of cold-rolled coil (CRC) from China with boron greater than or equal to 0.0008 percent. Antidumping duties will range between 65.99 percent and 103.41 percent.
The Secretariat of Economy added the cold rolled steel with added boron to the existing antidumping duties on CRC after Altos Hornos de Mexico (AHMSA) and Ternium petitioned the ministry to launch an anti-circumvention investigation. The companies noted that CRC with added boron was a minor difference from the CRC in the original investigation and should be subject to payment of antidumping duties.
