The Import and Export Licensing (Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2021 revoke the requirement for general licences for imports of rice and ethyl alcohol of agricultural origin and export licences for rice, as set out in retained EU law in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No. 2016/1237 and Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No. 2016/1239.
As a result, the following products no longer require a non-quota import licence, when imported into England, Wales and Scotland. Other arrangements apply in Northern Ireland by virtue of the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland.
