On March 1, clearing agents notified buyers of hot rolled coil and billet that the import duties on each had been decreased from 15% to 10% to 5%.
When the parties wished to go into more detail about the reduction, they got conflicting reports, and the authorities said it might have been a system glitch.
A buy-side source adds, “I was surprised when my clearing agent told me the customs duty for HRC was reduced to 5% from 15%. I then went on to verify this on the ZATCA website. “Imports will flow into the nation if this is not a system error but a deliberate policy change,” he continues.
There was no formal announcement made and it was unclear how the customs duty amendment worked until press time.
