Why source Cloves from Sri Lanka

Ceylon cloves are valued for their high essential-oil content and strong aroma, used whole in food and as feedstock for clove-oil and oleoresin extraction. Hand-picked and sun-dried, conventional or organic.

Forms & grades: Whole hand-picked; conventional or organic; also for oil / oleoresin. Browse current listings on our Cloves category page.

Duty & tariff treatment for Mexico

There is no trade agreement between Sri Lanka and Mexico, so goods from Sri Lanka enter at Mexico’s standard (MFN) rate under the TIGIE. Different forms of a product (whole, ground, refined) can sit on different tariff fractions, so check the exact fraction before you price.

Standard commercial documents and a certificate of origin from Sri Lanka. Confirm the current rate for your TIGIE fraction in SNICE.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Mexico SNICE / TIGIE tariff lookup, and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our लैंडेड-कॉस्ट कैलकुलेटर. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.

Import requirements for Mexico

Typical requirements for bringing Cloves into Mexico include:

  • SENASICA plant-health import requirements for Cloves from Sri Lanka: look up the requirement sheet in SENASICA’s phytosanitary requirements module (by product and origin).
  • A phytosanitary certificate issued in Sri Lanka by the National Plant Quarantine Service (NPQS), where the requirement sheet calls for one.
  • The importer must be registered in Mexico’s Padrón de Importadores; confirm whether the fraction also needs the sectoral register.
  • Retail packs need Spanish labelling under NOM-051; confirm any COFEPRIS requirement for your product with your customs broker.

Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our निर्यात दस्तावेज चेकलिस्ट for the full set.
