한국어 Import Ceylon Tea from Sri Lanka to Singapore
What it takes to source Ceylon Tea from Sri Lanka and bring it into Singapore: tariff treatment, import requirements, shipping times and indicative pricing, with a free route to quotes from verified exporters.
Fresh Ceylon Tea crop typically lands year-round, with quality peaks Jan–Mar and Jul–Sep, see the harvest calendar.
Why source Ceylon Tea from Sri Lanka
“Ceylon” is a globally protected mark of origin for Sri Lankan tea, sold through the transparent مزاد الشاي في كولومبو. Buyers can source by elevation (high / medium / low grown) and grade (BOP, BOPF, OP, FBOP, dust) with consistent quality and a clean, well-documented supply chain.
Forms & grades: Black, green and specialty teas by elevation and leaf grade; bulk or private-label. Browse current listings on our Ceylon Tea category page.
Duty & tariff treatment for Singapore
Singapore is a free port: nearly all imports enter duty-free regardless of origin (only a few items such as alcohol and tobacco are dutiable), and the Sri Lanka–Singapore FTA (SLSFTA, 2018) further locks this in. Singapore is a major re-export gateway into ASEAN and beyond.
Duty is rarely an issue; for any SLSFTA-specific benefit a Certificate of Origin meeting the 35% value-addition + change-of-tariff-heading rule is used.
Import requirements for Singapore
Typical requirements for bringing Ceylon Tea into Singapore include:
- Food imports go through a licensed importer registered with the Singapore Food Agency (SFA), with the relevant import permit and labeling.
- A health / phytosanitary certificate for food and plant products as required.
- High packaging and labeling standards for retail-ready goods.
Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our قائمة التحقق من مستندات التصدير for the full set.
