Esfahan Steel Company (ESCO) has received a certificate of conformity from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT), officially certifying that it meets the country's quality and regulatory standards. This development facilitates ESCO's entry into the UAE market and increases its competitiveness with regional and global steel suppliers. With this certification, ESCO will now be able to legally export billets to the UAE without additional inspections or compliance barriers, reducing trade barriers.
The UAE is one of the largest steel importers in the Middle East. With this certificate from MoIAT, ESCO will be able to export steel billets directly to the UAE without facing additional inspections or compliance barriers. This will strengthen Iran's position in the regional market and help it gain a competitive advantage over major suppliers such as Russia, Türkiye and India.
Price Competition and Market Dynamics May Change
The UAE steel sector is dependent on imports in certain product groups. ESCO's entry into the market could create a new element of competition for local producers and importers. Increased supplies could put downward pressure on billet prices, while providing a more cost-effective alternative for importers.
A New Opening Despite Trade Restrictions
The UAE is generally cautious in its trade relations with Iran, given the sanctions. However, ESCO's certification indicates that certain trade barriers have been eased for Iranian goods that are not subject to sanctions. This indicates that cooperation between Iran and the UAE in the steel sector could deepen.
The certificate of conformity from MoIAT is not only an export opportunity for ESCO, but also an important step in the Iranian steel sector's access to international markets.
