Why source Cardamom from Sri Lanka

Ceylon cardamom (true cardamom, Elettaria cardamomum) is grown in Sri Lanka’s cool central highlands and prized for its aroma and bold green pods. Available whole or ground, conventional or organic.

Forms & grades: Green pods (bold / AGEB grades), whole or ground; conventional or organic. Browse current listings on our Cardamom category page.

Duty & tariff treatment for Iraq

There is no preferential agreement between Sri Lanka and Iraq, so imports follow Iraq’s standard (MFN) tariff. Confirm the rate for your HS line. Iraq is, however, one of the largest export markets for Ceylon tea, with strong, long-standing demand.

A standard certificate of origin (often legalized) is required; there is no FTA preference to claim.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Iraq General Commission for Customs, and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our محاسبه‌گر هزینه تمام‌شده. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.

Import requirements for Iraq

Typical requirements for bringing Cardamom into Iraq include:

  • Conformity to COSQC (Iraqi standards) and Arabic labeling for food.
  • حلال certification where applicable, and a health / phytosanitary certificate.
  • Documents are often subject to legalization / attestation. Confirm the current requirements with your buyer.

Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our چک‌لیست اسناد صادراتی for the full set.
