The previous government implemented an Autonomous Tariff Quota (ATQ) on raw cane sugar on 1 January 2021 following the UK’s departure from the EU. Following subsequent reviews of this ATQ in 2021 and 2023, the previous government maintained the volume level of this ATQ at 260,000 tonnes and committed to reviewing this again in 2024. On the basis of the review carried out in 2024, the government has decided to maintain the raw cane sugar ATQ for 2025 at the existing volume of 260,000 tonnes and maintain the UK Global Tariff (UKGT) rate at the same level (£280 per tonne for raw cane sugar for refining) to minimise disruption to the sugar market in the short term and balance other concerns. The government will make an announcement in due course on the process for determining the ATQ and related considerations for 2026 and subsequent years.
