The Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) has announced an extension of existing antidumping (AD) duties on welded stainless steel pipes, tubes and hollow profiles from China for the duration of an ongoing reinvestigation.
The reinvestigation was launched in November 2025 following a request from major regional producers, including Globus-Stal LLC, Marchegalia Ru LLC, Rusinox LLC and Sinarsky Pipe Plant JSC. The original AD measures, which were set to expire on March 13, 2026, have now been extended until November 12, 2026.
Under Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) trade defense rules, existing antidumping measures may remain in force for the entire duration of an investigation, which must be concluded within 12 months of initiation.
The current antidumping duties range from 14.62% to 17.28% of the customs value, depending on the Chinese manufacturer. The affected products fall under customs codes 7306 40 200 9, 7306 40 800 1, 7306 40 800 8, and 7306 61 100 9.
The EEC said the extension aims to prevent potential injury to domestic producers while the investigation determines whether dumping would be likely to continue or recur if the duties were allowed to expire.
