Import Quota
An import quota is a limit on the number / volume of imports that can be brought into a particular country in each time period.
Sometimes a government introduces a tariff-free quota. This limits how many imports can be brought into a country before an import tariff is applied.
Unlike a tariff, an import quota does not generate tax revenues for the government.
