NOTIFICATION PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 9, FOOTNOTE 2  
OF THE AGREEMENT ON SAFEGUARDS  
EUROPEAN UNION 
Certain Steel Products  
Supplement  
The following communication , dated  and received on 26 May  2022, is being circulated at the request 
of the delegation of the European Union.  
 
_______________  
 
 
Pursuant to Articles 12.1(c) of the Agreement on Safeguards, the European Union ('the Union') 
submits a notification of proposed ad justments to safeguard measures following a Review 
investigation. This notification contains all pertinent information relating to the proposed 
adjustments to safeguard measures in accordance with Article 12.2 of the Agreement on Safeguards 
and an offer of  consultations pursuant to Article 12.3 of the Agreement on Safeguards.  
 
1. Provide precise description of the product involved  
 
(1) The product concerned is certain steel products belonging to the 26 steel product categories 
listed in Annex I to this Notification.  
 
2. Provide precise description of the proposed measure  
 
Legal basis  
 
(2) By Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/ 10291 ('the Prolongation Regulation'), 
the Commission prolonged the safeguard measure until 30 June 2024.  
 
(3) In recital (85) of the Prolongation Regulation, the Commission stated "in order to keep in the 
meantime the operation of the safeguard adapted to market evolution and in line with the 
interest of all stakeholders, the Commission will undertake a functioning review, like those 
conducted in 2019 and 2020. Such functioning review will be initiated sufficiently in advance 
to introduce any needed chan ges from 1 July 2022, after the first year of prolongation ".  
 
(4) Accordingly, the Commission initiated a functioning review investigation by means of a Notice 
of Initiation ('NOI') published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 
17 December  20212 inviting interested parties to make their views known and submit 
evidence concerning in particular the following grounds of review:  
 
(a) Allocation and management of quotas;  
 
1 Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1029 of 24 June 2021 amending Commission 
Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/159 to prolong the safeguard measure on imports of certain 
steel products, (OJ L 225 I, 25.6.2021, p.1).  
2 Notice of Initiation concerning a review of the safeguard measure applicable to imports of certain 
steel products (2021/C 509/10), OJ C 509, 17.12.2021, p.12.  G/SG/N/10/EU/1/Suppl.15 • G/SG/N/11/EU/1/Suppl.10

  (b) Crowding out of traditional trade flows;  
(c) Update of the list of devel oping countries subject to the measure;  
(d) Level of liberalisation;  
(e) Impact on the measure due to the changes in the US Section 232 measure.  
 
(5) On 24 May, the European Union adopted a regulation3 allowing for temporary trade 
liberalisation and other  trade concessions with regard to certain Ukrainian products. When it 
enters into force, this regulation will, inter alia, temporarily suspend the application of the 
steel safeguard measure vis-a-vis Ukraine4. 
 
Adjustments proposed under the Review  
 
(6) The Commission proposes to introduce some adjustments to the ongoing safeguard measure. 
The adjustments proposed are described below under headers corresponding to the grounds 
of review identified in the Notice of Initiation of the Review Investigation . 
 
A. Level and allocation of the Tariff -Rate Quota ('TRQ') for a number of product 
categories  
 
(7) While the current system of quota allocation and administration is appropriate, the 
Commission nevertheless considered that it requires some technical adjus tments to improve 
its functioning in light of changed circumstances. These concern product categories 7 (quarto 
plates) and 17 (angles, shapes and sections).  
 
(8) In these two product categories, Ukraine has been historically an important exporter 
(repres enting around 33% of total quotas in each of these categories) and it has consistently 
used its quotas at rather high levels. However, the Commission observed that since the 
unprovoked and unjustified military aggression of Russia against Ukraine, there ha ve been 
virtually no imports of these two categories from Ukraine into the Union. This suggests that 
Ukraine is currently unable to produce and/or export these products in any meaningful 
volumes to the Union market. Under these circumstances, and having an alysed the quota use 
by other exporting countries subject to the measure, the Commission considered that there 
would be a risk of potential shortage of supply for Union users in these categories if it did not 
take any action.  
 
(9) For this reason, in the Union interest, the Commission considered it necessary to globalise the 
administration of the quotas that remain under the measure in categories 7 and 17. In other 
words, the existing country specific quotas will be removed in order to make instead a singl e 
quota available for all origins, hence substantially increasing the flexibility for users to import 
the steel they may need from any source available within the quota volume in these 
categories.  
 
(10) The Commission concluded that given the past track r ecord of imports in terms of volumes 
(quota use) and origins, this adjustment does not risk undermining the effectiveness of the 
measure vis -a-vis Union producers and it is unlikely that any crowding out would take place 
and that the traditional trade flow s will be preserved.  
 
B. 'Crowding out' of traditional trade flows  
 
(11) In the ongoing review, the Commission assessed whether crowding out effects had taken 
place. To do so, the Commission, based on the analysis of the second review, updated the 
differe nt regimes based on the data available since then. This means that the Commission 
analysed import data and quota use per origin and category from 1 April 2020 until 
31 March  2022.  
 
 
3 https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press -releases/2022/05/24 /ukraine -council -adopts -
temporary -trade -liberalisation -with-ukraine/  
4 The effect of this suspension will be that, as long as it remains in place, imports from Ukraine are not 
accounted for in any quota, either country -specific or residual (even if Ukraine ’s quotas continue to appear in 
Annex III). Similarly, the volumes of imports by Ukraine during the reference period of the original 
investigation (2015 -2017) are not accounted for the calculation of the residual quotas.  G/SG/N/10/EU/1/Suppl.15 • G/SG/N/11/EU/1/Suppl.10  
 
- 3 - 
 
  (12) On the basis of the same methodology applied in the second functionin g review, but with 
updated data, the access regimes per product category are updated as follows (for specific 
volumes see Annex III.3):  
– No access: 5, 9, 21  
– Limited access: 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 27  
– No limitation: 2, 3A, 3B, 4A, 6, 10, 15, 18, 19, 22, 24 , 25B, 26, 28.  
 
(13) In line with the principles applied in the previous functioning review, the following categories 
will be subject to a special regime:  
– 1, 4B  
 
(14) In the case of categories 7, 8, 17 and 25A, they will be administered globally. Therefore, the 
possibility to access Q4 is not applicable, as there are no countries exporting under a country -
specific quota.  
 
(15) For categories 1 and 4B, the current regime whereby access is granted in Q4 with a 30% cap 
per exporting country continues to be deemed appropriate in order to ensure sufficient variety 
of sources of supply while avoiding crowding out effects through an excessive flow of additional 
imports beyond traditional trade flows.  
 
(16) Overall, by this feature the measure wo uld continue allowing access to the residual quota in 
Q4 in the large majority of product categories.  
 
C. Update of the list of developing WTO member countries excluded from the scope of 
the measure based on updated import statistics  
 
(17) Following the ad option of the definitive safeguard measure, the Commission committed to 
reviewing, on a regular basis, the list of developing countries potentially excluded from the 
scope of the measure based on updated import statistics.  
 
(18) For updating the list of ex clusions from the measure under the second Review, the Commission 
will use the more updated and representative set of consolidated statistics, i.e. the full 
year 2021.  
 
(19) The results of this analysis are presented in Annex II to this Notification.  
 
D. Level of liberalisation  
 
(20) The current liberalisation rate of the safeguard was set at an annual rate of 3%. The 
Commission assessed in this investigation whether this level of liberalisation continued to be 
appropriate.  
 
(21) The safeguard instrument i s intended to be of a temporary nature. As of 1 July 2022, the 
measure will enter into its fifth year of application. The objective of liberalisation (which is a 
legal obligation under WTO5 and EU6 rules) is to progressively allow more import competition  
into the market while the domestic industry is adjusting to it. This is to avoid a measure that 
would not incentivise adjustments for domestic industry while it is in place, and which would 
create problems of competitiveness when the domestic industry wil l be exposed to greater 
foreign competition in a post -safeguard measure scenario.  
 
(22) With this logic in mind, the Commission considered that at this point in time (after four years 
of measure) a slightly higher level of liberalisation year -on-year should be envisaged in order 
to encourage the domestic industry to continue its adjustments, while being mindful not to 
undermine the effectiveness of the measure.  
 
(23) The Commission considered that setting the yearly level of liberalisation at 4% as of 
1 July 2022 would be appropriate.

(24) Following the adjustments described in Sections A to D above, the TRQs and the allocation of 
quotas among supplying countries are set out in Annexes III.1 and III.2.  
 
E. Changes to US Section 232 measures and effects on EU Safeguard measure  
 
(25) In addition to the assessment described in Sections A to  D above, the European Union also 
assessed whether any of the changes to the US Section 232 measure had any effect to the 
EU safeguard measure requiring an adjustment.  
 
(26) The European Union concluded that the changes to the US Section 232 measure did not justify 
any adjustment to the EU Safeguard measure. Therefore, because no adjustments are 
proposed in this respect, the detailed reasoning on this section will be included in the legal act 
that is currently subject to EU's internal decision -making and which will be published before 
1 July 2022.  
 
F. Other claims  
 
(27) Equally, the legal act will contain the Commission's specific rebuttals to any other claims 
brought up by interested parties and which did not lead to any adjustments to the measure.  
 
3. Provide proposed date of introduction of the measure  
 
(28) The proposed date for the entry into force of the adjustments to the measure is 1 July 2022.  
 
4. Provide expected duration of the measure  
 
(29) The measure are expected to be in place until 30 June 2024 (pending the outcome of the next 
review investigation), as foreseen by recital (85) of the Prolongation Regulation.  
 
5. For a measure with a duration of more than three years, provide the proposed date 
for the review (under Article 7.4) to be held not later than the mid -term of the measure, 
if such a date for the review has already been scheduled  
 
(30) Not applicable  
 
6. If the expected duration is over one year, provide expected timetable for progressive 
liberalisation of the measure  
 
(31) The definitive measures will be liberalised by increasing the level of the TRQ for all product 
categories by 4% for the period 1 July 2022 – 30 June 2023, and 1 July 2023 – 30 June 2024.  
 
7. Provide information relating to the extension of a safeguard measure  
 
(32) Not applicable  
 
8. Exclusion of certain countries from the scope of the definitive measure  
 
(33) The Review of the definitive measure shows that imports of certain product categories 
originating in a series of developing countries meet the requireme nts of Article 9 of the 
WTO Agreement on Safeguards and should therefore be excluded (See Annex II).  
 
9. Procedures relevant to the decision to apply the measure and information regarding 
procedures for prior consultations with those Members having a subst antial interest as 
exporters of the product concerned  
 
(34) Members having a substantial interest as exporters of the product subject to the investigation 
that wish to consult with the European Union may make a request through the EU Mission in 
Geneva. The se consultations shall be held with the European Commission services (via 
videoconference preferably) during the period 27 May – 3 June 2022 .
