From July 6, 2025, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Viet Nam officially implemented anti-dumping measures on some hot-rolled rolled steel products from China, imposing anti-dumper duties of up to 27.83% for a period of five years. This measure may reshape the pattern of China-Vietnam steel trade, and relevant companies need to pay close attention.

Tax rates are a step-by-step approach for different businesses
The maximum tax rate of 27.83% applies to 12 large steel enterprises such as Baosteel, Angang Steel, Shasteel, Shougang Steel and Masteel. In addition, all Chinese steel companies that are not included in the list will apply this punitive tax rate.
Moderate tax rate of 26.94%: specifically targeted at the Yanshan Iron and Steel Group.
Minimum tax rate of 23.1%: only applicable to Guangxi Liuzhou Iron and Steel Group, it is worth noting that the tax rate compared to the temporary tax rate of 19.38% in March, a full 3.72 percentage points higher.
Vietnam Customs' strict three-step audit mechanism
Vietnam Customs will implement a rigorous three-step audit process to ensure the accurate implementation of anti-dumping duties policy:
1. Check the certificate of origin: If the product is of Chinese origin, it will be subject to a tax; If they are not of Chinese origin, they are tax free.
2. Check the manufacturer's quality certificate: The certificate must be fully consistent with the information of the listed enterprise before it can be approved.
3. Verify exporter name: The exporter name needs to match the manufacturer or its affiliated trading company.
If any of the above links are found to be inconsistent, the customs will tax the business directly at the top rate of 27.83%.
Exemptions for products and trade paths
In order to reduce the impact of the policy, Viet Nam has also set certain exemptions:
Product exemption: Products with a width greater than or equal to 1880mm, as well as products with specific steel grades (such as BW450, BS700MCK2, etc.), are exempt.
Trade path exemption: If the product is transited through a third country (not China) and can provide a complete proof of origin, it is also eligible for duty-free treatment.
