PPGI products subject to investigation are classified under HS codes 7210.7021, 7210.7029 and7210.7090. Domestic producer CSC Steel filed a petition to extend the duties.
The Malaysian government has maintained the same tax rates for Chinese exporters and other Vietnamese exporters since 2016, at 52.1% and 34.85% respectively. Meanwhile, Maruichi Sun Steel Joint Stock Company is subject to a duty of 12.06%, also unchanged from the 2016 tax rate. NS BlueScope Vietnam Limited will also face a 34.85% rate, but Nam Kim Steel Joint Stock Company will again avoid taxes for the next five years.
