An APTA Certificate of Origin is required to claim the concession.
Import requirements for South Korea
Essential Oils is an industrial or horticultural product rather than a foodstuff, so it generally falls outside food-safety registration when entering South Korea. Essential oils are traded on purity / GC specifications; cosmetic-use oils follow the market’s cosmetics rules (e.g. EU Cosmetics Regulation, IFRA), and food-flavor oils may additionally need food-safety clearance. Always confirm the exact requirements for your product and grade with South Korea’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.
