The US would levy anti-dumping charges on steel pipe imports from UAE over unfair competition. The United States International Trade Commission said that it would impose the charges after a department of commerce investigation had determined that circular welded carbon-quality steel pipe had been sold below market price. The US commerce department on October 24 said that it had determined that margins of 6.43 per cent should be applied on steel pipe imports from Abu Dhabi-based Ajmal Steel Tubes & Pipes and margins of 5.58 per cent on imports from Dubai-based Universal Tube and Plastic Industries.
