Ukraine’s Interdepartmental Commission on International Trade (ICIT) has decided to review anti-dumping measures on imports of steel fasteners from China due to the expiration of their term of application.

No. AD-587/2025/441-01 was adopted on September 26 based on a request from PrJSC Druzhkivka Metal Products Plant and the conclusions of the Ministry of Economy, according to Uriadovy Kurier.

During the period of the current duties, Chinese fasteners continued to be imported at dumped prices, ICIT found. The Commission concluded that the removal of restrictions could lead to further growth in dumping and damage to domestic enterprises.

Until the review procedure is completed, the anti-dumping measures introduced in 2020 will remain in force. The Ministry of Economy will collect information from interested parties over the coming months.

In May, the ICIT extended AD duties on imports of corrosion-resistant rolled steel from China and Russia, as well as cement from Moldova, Russia, and Belarus, for five years.

The Ministry of Economy emphasizes that these steps are aimed at protecting the domestic market from dumped imports and maintaining the competitiveness of Ukrainian producers in the difficult conditions of war and global competition.
