Maati Farms is an India-based export house sourcing Basmati rice from vetted Indian
mills for buyers in the United Arab Emirates, managing quality checks, export documentation, and
freight on the seller’s side of every shipment.
Why the UAE sources Basmati rice from India
The UAE is one of the largest per-capita importers of Basmati rice in the world, and Saudi Arabia,
the UAE, and Iran together account for the majority of India’s Basmati export value. Indian Basmati
— grown in the Indo-Gangetic plains — is the established benchmark variety across UAE
retail, foodservice, and wholesale food-trading channels.
What importing into the UAE typically requires
Food imports into the UAE generally require registration with the relevant municipality food
control department and compliance with GCC food-labelling standards. As an export house, Maati
Farms coordinates the export-side documentation — certificate of origin, phytosanitary
certification where applicable — with the supplier, so the buyer isn’t managing this alone.
