    The Australian Anti-Dumping Commission has recommended increasing the interim duty on steel reinforcing bars (rebar) imported from China.

Core Proposal

    • The interim dumping duty rate is proposed to rise from 19% to 23.7%.

    • The new rate would take effect on April 14, 2026, following the expiry of current measures.

Reasoning & Special Case

    • The Commission concluded that ending the existing duties would likely lead to a resumption of dumped imports and cause injury to the Australian industry.

    • For Baowu Group Echeng Iron and Steel, a specific floor price is proposed instead of the 23.7% duty rate.

Next Steps

    • The final recommendation is due to the Minister for Industry and Science by February 9, 2026.

    • The proposal covers rebar under multiple specific HS codes.
