Policy InstrumentImport tariff

DescriptionRaised tariffs on non-basmati husked rice imported outside of existing trade agreements, given that total imports of these classes during the 2019/20 marketing year (September–August) exceeded the 517 130 tonne threshold that triggers a higher import duty. Accordingly, import tariffs on these classes would pass from EUR 42.5 (USD 50) to EUR 65 (USD 77) per tonne, effective from 9 September 2020.
