Duty & tariff treatment for Pakistan

Sri Lanka and Pakistan have a Free Trade Agreement (PSFTA, in force since 2005) giving duty-free or preferential access on most products. Pakistan is one of the largest buyers of सीलोन चाय, which moves under a preferential PSFTA arrangement. Confirm your product’s concession and any tariff-rate quota.

PSFTA preference requires a PSFTA Certificate of Origin meeting the agreement’s value-addition (typically 35%) and consignment rules.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Pakistan Customs tariff, 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 Pakistan

Essential Oils is an industrial or horticultural product rather than a foodstuff, so it generally falls outside food-safety registration when entering Pakistan. 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 Pakistan’s customs and standards authority.

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