Egypt has re-imposed customs tariffs of 25 percent on steel rebar and 16 percent on iron billets for three years, the trade and industry ministry said .

The tariffs will take effect on Saturday and will gradually decrease over a three-year period.

The ministry first imposed the import fees on steel rebar and iron billets on 15 April for a period of six months, with the option to extend them if necessary.

Iron billets were subject to a 15 percent tariff in the April decision.

The ministry said the introduction of tariffs was in response to a rise in imports that had hurt the local industry.

The iron billet tariffs have been subject to legal challenge from steel re-rolling companies that depend on imported billets, and an administrative court ruled in July they should be suspended.

The ministry appealed the decision and a higher court has yet to rule.
