Australia has begun an investigation into the extension of anti-dumping tariffs on steel reinforcing bars from China
Australia's Anti-Dumping Commission (ADC) has initiated a sunset review to assess whether to extend existing anti-dumping duties on steel reinforcing bars (rebar) imported from China. This review is part of the ADC's ongoing efforts to protect the domestic steel industry from unfair trade practices. Australia first imposed anti-dumping duties on Chinese rebar in April 2016 following an investigation that began in July 2015. These measures were extended in December 2020 after a previous sunset review. The current review, initiated on May 26, 2025, aims to determine whether the continuation of these duties is necessary to prevent further injury to the Australian industry.
