Published Date: 8/29/2025
Notice
Summary
The U.S. says some corrosion-resistant steel from South Africa is being sold here for less than it should be, which isn’t fair. Because of this, certain extra fees (called duties) will apply to these steel imports starting now. This helps protect U.S. steel makers and keeps the playing field level during the year-long review ending June 30, 2024.

Action Aims To Protect U.S. Steel Makers
Commerce says this action is intended to protect U.S. steel makers and keep the playing field level during the year-long review that ends June 30, 2024. Domestic steel producers are identified as the group the measure is meant to help.
