Japan: USJTA TRQs Remain Underfilled in JFY 2021
Link to report:
The U.S.-Japan Trade Agreement (USJTA), which entered into force on January 1, 2020, improved market access for U.S. products through the creation of tariff-rate quotas (TRQs) for food wheat, wheat products, malt, processed cheese, whey, glucose and fructose, potato starch, corn starch, and inulin. In JFY 2021, allocation and fill rates of the TRQs continued to remain low. This report provides data on TRQ allocation and fill rates, together with out-of-quota imports observed during the last fiscal year.
