20 May 2026 Farjess Inc. und Royal Canadian Steel Inc.Canadian steel companies pay 19 million USD – steel from Asia and Europe declared as Canadian €16.4m
Two Canadian steel companies allegedly declared flat-rolled steel from China, Indonesia, Italy, Turkey and Vietnam to US customs as being of Canadian or US origin from May 2019 to January 2025. The settlement of 19 million USD (a joint payment with a further settling party) resolves the lawsuit of a customs broker, who receives around 3.61 million USD.
Base origin declarations in cross-border trade on mill certificates – and take note that your own customs broker is often the first to spot inconsistencies.
