The Russian government has set export duties on certain types of grain legumes

Starting January 1, 2025, Russia will permanently impose customs duties on the export of certain leguminous crops, including peas, chickpeas, and lentils, to countries outside the Eurasian Economic Union. The export duty rate will be 5% of the customs value. Until the end of 2024, flexible export duties will be in place, ranging from 4 to 7% depending on the ruble exchange rate. The aim is to maintain a reasonable balance between domestic consumption and exports of these crops.
