Paddy rice is subject to a TRQ, meaning that shipments within the quota volume enter at a lower in-quota duty rate, while quantities above the quota threshold face a substantially higher over-quota rate. Importers must monitor quota fill levels — published by USDA — and time shipments accordingly, as quota exhaustion mid-year can dramatically increase landed costs.
As a food commodity, rough rice imports fall under FDA jurisdiction. Importers must file prior notice with FDA before the shipment arrives, and the product is subject to FDA examination for pesticide residues, mycotoxins, and other contaminants. Shipments from facilities not registered with FDA may be refused entry. Consult a licensed customs broker or FDA for current admissibility requirements.
