Non-tariff barriers take the form of supplementary taxes on imports, targeted import bans, licensing requirements, and other miscellaneous barriers. A certificate of conformity and payment of an associated fee is required to import some products, including rice and batteries. The fact that the fee is based on the quantity imported gives this the character of a protectionist measure.
