Yes — Veetee Thai Jasmine Rice is ultra-processed.
The product contains the additive glucono delta lactone, which is an industrially produced acidity regulator, so under NOVA it is classified as ultra-processed. While steamed jasmine rice and sunflower oil are minimally processed/basic culinary ingredients, the presence of this additive makes the overall product UPF.
