Frequently asked questions

I run a rice mill that whitens and packages rice: is ATECO code 10.61.20 correct?
Yes. Husking, whitening, polishing, glazing, and parboiling of rice all fall under 10.61.20, along with rice flour. Wheat and other cereal milling is covered by 10.61.11 and 10.61.19.
I produce rice flour for gluten-free products: is it 10.61.20 or the starch code 10.62.00?
10.61.20. Rice flour is explicitly listed in this category. You only move to 10.62.00 if you extract rice starch rather than simply milling the grain into flour.
I produce parboiled rice and ready-to-cook risotto rice: does it all stay under 10.61.20 or does the code change?
Parboiled and packaged milled rice fall under 10.61.20 because they are grain-level processing steps. However, when you prepare a fully seasoned and cooked risotto dish ready to reheat and eat, that becomes a ready meal covered by 10.85.05, which includes rice-based dishes.
I only pack whole-grain rice without processing it — bought already milled: is it 10.61.20 or trade?
Usually it is trade, not 10.61.20. This code applies when you carry out the grain-level operations yourself — husking, whitening, polishing, or milling into flour. Simply buying and repacking already-processed rice without transforming it falls under commerce, while extracting rice starch remains under 10.62.00.
