In a significant step demonstrating increased scrutiny of global trade practices, the United Arab Emirates has launched an official anti-dumping investigation into imports of certain steel profiles originating from China. The probe targets U-, I-, and H-beams, along with alloy steel angles (HS codes 721631, 721632, 721633, and 722870), widely used in construction and infrastructure projects. Emirates Steel alleges that Chinese exporters are selling these steel products below fair market value, causing significant harm to the domestic industry through falling prices, shrinking profits, and lost market share. The investigation will determine whether dumping has occurred and if it has materially injured local production. The UAE recently introduced anti-dumping measures targeting Chinese goods following a notable influx of redirected products into local markets due to tariffs imposed by the US and Europe. This protective action aims to safeguard domestic industries without compromising the country’s open trade policies.
