EU suspends inward processing for raw cane sugar
Sugar refiners must stop using inward processing for raw cane sugar
EUR-Lex
·
Change
EU suspended inward processing arrangements for raw cane sugar used to obtain white sugar until 27 May 2027.
Why it matters
The suspension removes a duty-free processing route for raw cane sugar used in white sugar production. Existing valid authorisations receive only a 30-day transition, forcing affected operators to update import, refining and customs authorisation assumptions.
Implications
- — EU sugar refiners using inward processing authorisations must stop applying the procedure to raw cane sugar used for white sugar production after the 30-day transition.
- — Customs and trade compliance teams must update inward processing authorisation checks for CN codes 1701 13 90 and 1701 14 90 until the suspension expires.
