China has decided to extend anti-dumping duties on certain alloy-steel seamless tubes and pipes for high temperature and pressure service from the United States and European Union, the Commerce Ministry said Friday.

The anti-dumping tax rate applicable to steel tubes and pipes is between 57.9% and 147.8%. on companies in the U.S. and the EU.

China, the world's largest steel producer and consumer, had imposed 13-14.1% tariffs on companies in the U.S. and the EU in 2014 which expired May 10, 2019.
