SHANGHAI, Jan. 7 (SMM) – China will likely introduce new positive export policy in late 2015 to support exports of high-end steel products.
News reported that China Iron & Steel Association has submitted a proposal to the Ministry of Commerce for raising export rebate tax on cold-rolled, galvanized and oriented silicon steel products.
The elimination of export rebate tax on boron-added steel products from Jan 1, 2015 has showed Chinese government’s encouragement in exports of high value-added products.
Exports of galvanized products will enjoy benefits if the proposal is approved, SMM foresees.
During the first eleven months of 2014, exports of boron-containing steel products involved in this round of tax adjustment roughly account for 31% of China’s total steel exports, according to Customs data.
