Forms & grades: Fibre (mattress/bristle), coco peat blocks/discs/grow-bags, pith; washed / low-EC options. Browse current listings on our Coir & Coco Peat category page.

Duty & tariff treatment for China

Sri Lanka and China both belong to the Asia-Pacific Trade Agreement (APTA), which grants tariff concessions (a margin of preference) on a list of products. Not blanket duty-free, so confirm whether your HS line is covered. (A China–Sri Lanka FTA has been negotiated but is not yet in force.)

APTA preference requires an APTA Certificate of Origin for products on the concession schedule.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the گمرک چین (GACC), 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 China

Coir & Coco Peat is an industrial or horticultural product rather than a foodstuff, so it generally falls outside food-safety registration when entering China. Coir and coco peat used as growing media usually need a گواهی بهداشت نباتی, and many markets require low-EC / washed material and may require fumigation or heat treatment. Always confirm the exact requirements for your product and grade with China’s customs and standards authority.

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