Korea Pays Up for Underpriced Steel Pipes

Published Date: 9/12/2025

Notice

Summary

The U.S. checked if Korean companies sold circular welded steel pipes too cheaply in 2022-2023 and found they did. Because of this, some companies will have to pay extra duties (taxes) to keep things fair for U.S. businesses. These changes affect importers and could impact prices starting now.

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.

Antidumping Duties Applied to Korean CWP

If you import circular welded non-alloy steel pipe (CWP) from the Republic of Korea that was reviewed, Commerce found sales below normal value for the period November 1, 2022 through October 31, 2023. Importers of the companies covered by this administrative review will face antidumping duties for the entries in that period.

Possible U.S. Price Effects for Steel Pipe

Because Commerce found certain Korean exporters sold CWP below normal value for November 1, 2022 through October 31, 2023, prices for circular welded non-alloy steel pipe in the U.S. market could rise starting now. If you buy or use this type of pipe, those higher costs could be passed on to purchasers.
