On October 3, 2025, the European Commission announced the launch of an expiry review of the anti-dumping (AD) measures on certain hot-rolled stainless steel sheets and coils originating in Indonesia, China, and Taiwan.

The review was initiated after the European Steel Association (EUROFER) requested it on July 4, 2025, claiming that the expiry of current measures would likely result in the continuation of dumping and the continuation or recurrence of injury to the EU industry.

The review investigation will cover the period from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025, and the injury assessment period will be from January 1, 2022, to the end of the review investigation period. The investigation is scheduled for completion within 12 months.

The products involved are hot-rolled stainless steel flat-rolled products, including coils, cut-to-length sheets, and narrow strips, excluding non-coiled products that are 600 mm or wider and thicker than 10 mm.
