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 Malaysia

There is no bilateral FTA between Sri Lanka and Malaysia, so imports follow Malaysia’s standard (MFN) tariff. Confirm your HS line (many foods are low or zero rated). Malaysia is a solid market for Ceylon tea, spices and rubber, and a regional distribution hub.

A standard certificate of origin is used; there is no FTA preference to claim.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Royal Malaysian 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 Malaysia

Typical requirements for bringing Cardamom into Malaysia include:

  • Food imports are regulated by the Ministry of Health (FSQD) with Malaysian labeling.
  • حلال certification (JAKIM-recognized) is important for much of the market.
  • A phytosanitary / health certificate for plant and food products.

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