What are some related trade regulations for mandarin in the global market?
Future UK import duties for Spain is unfavorable for the competitive position:
Spain is one of the largest exporters of mandarin. But from January 1, 2021, exports to the UK could be adversely affected by the possible enforcement of 16% tariffs on Spanish clementines and mandarins. If implemented, this is expected to have a strong impact on the second half of the season. These high tariffs would make Spain lose competitiveness against direct competitors from third countries in the Northern Hemisphere, such as Morocco, Egypt, or Turkey, and the United Kingdom has already signed preferential zero-rate agreements for the off-season (when South Africa is on the market). The UK is the third-largest market for Spanish exporters after Germany and France and there is no alternative destination for this market with 66 million consumers with a high purchasing power.
