UAE Steel Found to Be Dumped
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that certain corrosion-resistant steel (CORE) from the United Arab Emirates was sold in the United States at less than fair value for imports during July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024. That determination can lead to additional import duties being imposed on those UAE CORE shipments, so UAE exporters and U.S. buyers should prepare for potential extra costs.
