The decline in the quantity of registered paper order and also the decrease in the sales of paper and cardboard from South Korea are considered the reasons for the increase in their price in these recent years which have caused the paper to have false price increase.”
Referring to the increase in the prices of paper in recent weeks, the Head of the Association of Paper and Cardboard Importers said, “The decline in the quantity of registered paper order and also the decrease in the sales of paper and cardboard from South Korea are considered the reasons for the increase in their price in these recent years which have caused the paper to have false price increase.”
In an interview with Iran’s Book News Agency (IBNA), Hassan Mirbagheri, the Head of the Association of Paper and Cardboard importers said, “The price increase of recent weeks are due to fewer orders which have been registered in recent months because of bad atmospheres created by importers. Of course, the coordination between the Cabinet and the importers nay increase the quantity of placing orders.”
He added, “Another issue is that the Korean companies do not sell their products, including paper and cardboard, in large quantities to Iran, and their sales rate has declined which has seriously hurt the paper market.”
Considering the problem of money transfer to the seller countries is another influential factors in this field, Mirbagheri noted, “The money transfer to other countries in recent months has been problematic what has affected the increase in the paper price to some extent; for instance, the importers cannot transfer the money directly to Indonesia and have faced some problems in money transfer.”
The Head of the Association of Paper and Cardboard importers also continued, “On the other hand, the global paper price has risen, but we cannot deny that the paper price has gone up, and it was an artificial increase. According to the latest statistics, its today’s price has dropped compared to the last days of a week ago.”
He stressed, “However, with regard to the government’s interference in the market, I predict that the prices will be more balanced in the market in near future.”
In another part of his speech, referring to the clearance of the glossy paper cargo, Mirbagheri said, “Finally, after 5 months of negotiations and following up, the customs of the Islamic Republic of Iran announced on last Wednesday that the importers could clear their glossy paper.”
He added, “In the meantime, now that most merchants’ capital have stopped more than five months while some importers say that they had been clearing glossy paper since five months before, this issue has raised market problems on how such a thing is possible.”
Referring to the conditions for the clearance of glossy paper, Mirbagheri explained, “Customs recognizes the glossy paper with below 250 grammage as the paper used for writing, printing, and other graphic purposes, and as per the latest directions of customs, the glossy paper can be cleared from the customs of the whole country after its nature is determined by the Standard Organization.”
