1509 Basmati
A long, slender Basmati with clean, low-chalk grain — the value pick where the shelf needs genuine Basmati at a sharp price.
Gdańsk · Gdynia
Poland buys rice on price and clears it on paperwork. We keep both predictable — EU-compliant residue analysis per lot and a landed cost that does not move after booking.
Grading docket
LOT / PL-01Basmati · Milled
Yes. Om Prasadam exports Basmati and Non-Basmati rice from India to Poland under APEDA registration, loading at Mundra or Nhava Sheva for Gdańsk or Gdynia in twenty-two to twenty-six days. Poland is an EU member state, so the same maximum residue levels and food information rules apply as in Germany or the Netherlands, enforced by the State Sanitary Inspection. Rice consumption has grown steadily and the trade is price-sensitive, so we quote a landed cost that holds and ship residue-tested grades with NABL analysis per lot to keep entry clean.
In demand in Poland
Every market buys differently. These are the grades that actually sell in Poland, rather than a catalogue of everything we mill.
A long, slender Basmati with clean, low-chalk grain — the value pick where the shelf needs genuine Basmati at a sharp price.
The premium long-grain for Polish retail listings and the restaurant trade, in residue-tested grades.

Loading at Mundra and Nhava Sheva, discharging at Gdańsk.

Twenty-two to twenty-six days port to port, with routing and transshipment accounting for most of the variation.

Compliance
Most rice consignments that get held up are held on paperwork, not on quality. We prepare the file before the container is booked so your clearing agent is never waiting on us.
Reference
Typical trade specifications for the varieties we hold. Actual figures vary by crop year and lot; the analysis report travelling with your consignment is the binding one.

Questions importers ask
Twenty-two to twenty-six days port to port from Mundra or Nhava Sheva. Baltic services usually transship at Rotterdam, Hamburg or Bremerhaven before the final leg.
Yes. Lots are tested against 350-plus residues at NABL-accredited laboratories to EU maximum residue levels, with the analysis travelling with the consignment for sanitary inspection at entry.
Yes. Polish labels are applied at the mill to EU food information requirements, carrying net weight, origin, production and expiry dates, nutrition declaration and importer details.
No. The landed cost we quote holds for the agreed shipment window. Paddy and freight both move, which is why we quote against your actual requirement and fix it rather than publishing a rate that drifts.
