【SMM Aluminium Flash News】Anti-dumping duties to be levied on Chinese aluminium foil, says Eurasian Economic Commission

Published: Dec 3, 2025 09:51
The Eurasian Economic Commission, under the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council, has introduced a series of fresh trade measures targeting the Chinese imports of aluminium foil. Following the Council’s instruction, the board has agreed to impose anti-dumping duties for five years, setting rates between 17.16 per cent and 20.24 per cent for aluminium foil. While duties will apply broadly, the Commission has endorsed price commitments from selected manufacturers. For aluminium foil, Xiamen Xiashun Aluminium Foil Company, Ltd. has secured an arrangement under which its products will be exempt from the duty, provided it adheres to the agreed pricing terms. Alongside these price undertakings, the EEC has established annual import quotas that allow duty-free volumes for member states, provided the purpose of the imports is properly validated. According to Andrey Slepnev, the EEC minister responsible for trade, the allocations vary across the Union. Imports that fall within these quotas and are not covered by price commitments will be allowed into the Union without anti-dumping charges. The newly adopted decisions are scheduled to be in operation within a month of their official publication.
