HÀ NỘI – The US Department of Commerce (DOC) has terminated its scope review investigation into steel rolls imported from Việt Nam, according to the Trade Remedies Authority of Vietnam under the Ministry of Industry and Trade.

The agency said the decision was announced by the DOC on April 30, ending the investigation initiated on August 7, 2023.
