US anti-dumping duty on Vietnamese steel pipes increasedThe United States Department of Commerce (DOC) has revised its preliminary conclusion of the anti-dumping investigation of Vietnamese circular welded carbon-quality steel pipes, citing significant ministerial errors. After analysing the comments, DOC detected the errors in margin calculation and decided to revise the dumping margin rates for two Vietnamese steel exporters. Vietnam's CWP exports to the United States reached US$60.6 million in 2014, the highest among the four countries probed, according to the Vietnam Competition Authority. Other steel pipe exporters will still face the countrywide rate of 113.18 per cent, based on adverse reports. The rate for SeAH Steel Vina Corporation remained unchanged at zero per cent.
