# DGFT issued a notification regarding an amendment to the Export Policy Condition under HSN 1006 of Schedule-II (Export Policy), ITC (HS) 2022

> India’s Directorate General of Foreign Trade amended rice-export conditions effective November 9, 2026. Basmati and non-basmati rice exports to EU member states, the UK, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland require an EIC/EIA inspection certificate; exports to other European countries are exempt until April 1, 2027.
