To combat dumping, Morocco applies new standards on iron and steel imports

Morocco is preparing to apply a set of new technical standards on imported iron and steel products, with the aim of protecting the national economy from unfair practices.
This step comes at a time when local industries are facing major challenges as a result of unfair trade practices from some countries.
Starting from January 21, Morocco will apply 16 new technical standards on long and flat iron and steel products, six of which are related to GIPS (Governance of Import and Payment Documents) standards.
They were scheduled to come into effect in August 2024. However, the implementation of some of them was postponed due to some logistical and administrative challenges.
Customs authorities confirmed that some of the new standards cannot be implemented immediately, due to the lack of sufficient local laboratories to test the conformity of imported products with the specified standards.
In the context of combating dumping, the Ministry of Industry and Trade launched several measures to enhance protection for local sectors.
These measures included various sectors such as ceramics, textiles, plastics, iron and steel, and electrical appliances.
These policies aim to correct distortions resulting from subsidized imports at low prices, and to work to enhance the competitiveness of Moroccan industries.
