I dont recall the FDA having a limit on ash for paprika.  I believe they have set a limit of 1.5% for other products  CFIA has a limit for some spices, but not specfically paprika.   the closest one i found was cayenne which was 1.5 for AIA and 10 total.  Not sure about other countries or is there is an ASTA defintion out there.

In general ash is going to be a quality characteristic more that a food safety issue.   more ash = lower quality.
