El 12 de diciembre de 2025, el Ministerio de Comercio y la Administración General de Aduanas emitieron conjuntamente el Anuncio No. 79, decidiendo implementar la gestión de licencias de exportación para ciertos productos de acero a partir del 1 de enero de 2026.

This marks the re-implementation of the steel export license system in China 16 years after it was abolished in 2009, signifying a new stage in China's steel export management.

La Asociación China del Hierro y el Acero afirmó que la inclusión actual de productos de acero en el sistema de gestión de licencias de exportación es una medida importante para guiar la exportación estandarizada de productos de acero y promover el desarrollo de alta calidad de la industria del acero, lo que favorece el mantenimiento del patrón mundial de oferta y demanda de acero y la balanza comercial.

The China Iron and Steel Association (CISA) stated that continuously improving the management of steel product exports is a key step in ensuring that steel products prioritize meeting domestic demand during my country's process of accelerating the construction of a new development pattern. It is also a necessary measure for my country to guide industrial upgrading domestically and participate in international supply chain cooperation in the context of globalization. This will help coordinate trade flows, integrate trade channels, promote a positive interaction between international and domestic markets, and ultimately achieve the transformation and upgrading of the steel industry.

Según el Anuncio Nº 79, los productos de acero sujetos a la gestión de licencias de exportación comprenden 300 códigos aduaneros de productos básicos, que abarcan toda la cadena industrial, desde las materias primas hasta los productos acabados.

In September 2025, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, together with the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the Ministry of Commerce, and the State Administration for Market Regulation, jointly issued the "Work Plan for Stabilizing Growth in the Steel Industry (2025-2026)," which clearly proposed to strengthen the management of steel product exports, maintain export competition order, and optimize the structure of steel export products. Announcement No. 79 is a concrete measure to implement this requirement.
