The Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) has officially invited competitive tenders from domestic exporters to allocate residual trade quotas for shipping sugar to the European Union and the raw cane sugar to United States under preferential Tariff Rate Quota (TRQ) schemes for the 2025-26 fiscal year.
According to the official notices, APEDA is allocating a remaining quota of 805.05 metric tonnes (MT) for general sugar exports to the EU. Simultaneously, tenders have been opened for the allocation of 8,606 metric tonnes raw value (MTRV) of raw cane sugar destined for the US market.
Both export cycles operate under strict timelines, requiring all physical consignments to successfully reach their respective international destinations before September 30, 2026.
Eligible corporate bidders must possess a valid Importer-Exporter Code (IEC) and demonstrate substantial financial standing, verified by chartered accountant certificates proving that their average sugar trade turnover over the last three financial years is at least three times the requested quota volume.
