BANGKOK (Reuters) – Thailand has launched an investigation into imports of Chinese rolled steel for evading anti-dumping measures, the commerce ministry said in a statement.
The probe includes hot-rolled steel sheets in coils and non-coils from 17 manufacturers in China, according to the statement published on Sept 15.
“There is sufficient evidence that there is avoidance of anti-dumping duties and so an investigation is warranted,” the statement said.
The announcement comes after four Thai steel makers lodged a complaint with Thailand’s Foreign Trade Department.
