Brazil: Brazil Temporarily Removes Rice Import Tariffs
The Brazilian Government announced the elimination of import taxes on paddy rice (100610), husked/brown rice (100620), and milled rice (100630) for all countries. This measure is aimed at preventing potential supply issues and ensuring the replenishment of public rice stocks following the floods in the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RGDS). The zero-tariff measure will be effective from May 21, 2024, until December 31, 2024.
