28 September 2026

On 25 September 2026, the Government of Malaysia initiated an expiry review investigation on imports of Cold  Rolled  Coils  of  Alloy  and  Non-Alloy  Steel of a  thickness  between  0.20  millimetres  to  2.60  millimetres  and  width  between  700 millimetres  to  1,300  millimetres  excluding  tin  mill  black  plate and imported for the purpose of automotive end-usage of all grades and specifications, classified under the Harmonised System Code and ASEAN Harmonised Tariff Nomenclature 7209.15.0000, 7209.16.1000,   7209.16.9000, 7209.17.1000, 7209.17.9000, 7209.18.9900,  7225.50.1000 and 7225.50.90001 (“subject merchandise”) originating or exported from the People’s Republic of China (“relevant country”).2
 
The existing anti-dumping duties imposed on the subject merchandise under the Customs (Anti-Dumping Duties) (Administrative Review) (No. 2) Order 20263 originating or exported from the relevant country range from 35.89% to 42.08% and have effect from 15 January 2026 to 8 October 2026.
 
The Petition was filed by Mycron Steel CRC Sdn Bhd (“Petitioner”), a domestic producer of the subject merchandise, on behalf of the Malaysian industry.
 
The Petitioner has stated that that the request of expiry review is based, among others, on the grounds that: 
  1. the termination of the anti-dumping duties currently in force would be likely to lead to a continuation or recurrence of dumping and injury to the Malaysian Industry; and 
  2. the Petitioner has presented sufficient evidence of the dumping and injury to the Malaysian industry and the causal link between the imports of the subject merchandise with the alleged injury suffered by the domestic industry in Malaysia. 
All interested parties who wish to participate in the anti-dumping duties investigation may contact the Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) in writing to request for a copy of the questionnaire by 12 October 2026 and return the same by 26 October 2026 (being 15 and 30 days respectively from 25 September 2026, the date of the publication of the gazette notification of the initiation of the anti-dumping investigation).
