Subject : Allocation of additional quantity (non-country specific) for export of sugar to USA under Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ). Quota USDA Foreign Agriculture Service has increased the non-country specific Tariff Rate (TRQ) for refined sugar to 2,02,000 MTRV (metric tons raw value) by adding another 40,000 MTRV of speciality sugar, which is available for exporteis from all WTO countries for the US fiscal year 2017 (October 1, 2016 to September 30, 2017). The additional quantity of speciality sugar is not a country specific quota and will be operated by USDA authorities on First-Come, First-Serve (FCFS) basis. 2. For the Fiscal year 2017, quota for one tranch i.e. July 7 of the speciality sugar under TRQ is still available. As there is stiff competition among suppliers, the quota of speciality sugar fills immediately. Therefore, Indian supplier (s) are advised to identify a US company with presence in the US who is supposed to apply to USDA for tariff free quota.
