(5) Import licensing. 1. The Tariff Quota: The tariff or customs quota is a widely acclaimed measure. Under this system, import of a commodity up to a specified quantity is allowed to be imported duty-free or at a special low rate of duty.
An import quota is typically set below the free trade level of imports. In this case it is called a binding quota. If a quota is set at or above the free trade level of imports then it is referred to as a non-binding quota. Goods that are illegal within a country effectively have a quota set equal to zero. The main goal of import quotas is to protect an industry that in the free market is doomed to fail against international giants. Therefore, such measures are like putting hobbling industries on life support. However, this way governments emphasize evidently weak industries instead of supporting sectors where domestic producers can thrive. The main difference is that quotas restrict quantity while tariffs work through prices. Thus, a quota is a quantitative limit through imports. If an import quota of EC (Fig. 14.4) amount is imposed then price would rise to P t because the total supply (domestic output plus imports) equals total demand at that price. Thailand maintains the same list of tariff-rate-quota (TRQ) from its commitments under WTO agreement on agriculture since 2004. Thailand imposes domestic purchase requirements for several tariff-rate quota products, including nonfat dry milk, soybeans, soybean meal, and fresh potatoes. Quota, in international trade, government-imposed limit on the quantity, or in exceptional cases the value, of the goods or services that may be exported or imported over a specified period of time. Quotas are more effective in restricting trade than tariffs, particularly if domestic demand for a commodity is not sensitive to increases in price. Because the effects of quotas cannot be offset by depreciation of the foreign currency or by an export subsidy, quotas may be more disturbing to the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act Quota Enforcement and Administration Import quotas control the amount or volume of various commodities that can be imported into the United States during a specified period of time.
