The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) on May 24, 2022 has issued a notification to amend the Export Policy of Sugar which comes under Serial No.93 of chapter 17 of ITC (HS) schedule II.
The following amendment has been made in the policy condition of sugar:
“(i) With effect from 1st June, 2022 upto 31st October, 2022 or until further orders, whichever is earlier, export of sugar is allowed only with specific permission from Directorate of Sugar, Department of Food and Public Distribution (DFPD), Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food & Public Distribution.
(ii) Detailed procedure for issue of necessary permissions for export of sugar will be notified separately by Department of Food and Public Distribution (DFPD).”
