What This Export Duty Represents
This page tracks the weekly wheat export duty on a Russian customs basis, quoted in RUB/mt. Specification recorded: Indicative $228.00/mt. This is a published export duty, not a FOB grain price. Figures are CommodityScope Indicators synthesized from loaded market editions. They are not a live quote and not a republication of a price-reporting agency table.
How to use this series
- Read with the Russian FOB price of the same grain to see the exporter’s net return; convert RUB to USD at the relevant rate before subtracting.
What it is not suitable for
- Treating the duty or the indicative price as a market price.
- Applying the rate to EAEU-internal shipments.
