The temporary suspension of export duties will last until the end of 2025.
Argentina’s government has announced a temporary removal of export taxes on aluminium, steel, and related products, which went into effect on 8 October 2025.
The temporary suspension of export duties will last until the end of 2025.
This exemption applies only to exports destined for countries imposing import tariffs of 45% or higher on these goods. The policy will remain in place until 31 December 2025, or until the relevant countries lower their tariffs below the 45% threshold, whichever occurs first.
This move follows a similar, short-lived measure in September, when Argentina briefly suspended export taxes on soy, corn, wheat, and their derivatives, including biodiesel, in an effort to boost foreign sales and stabilise the struggling peso.
