Why source Virgin Coconut Oil from Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is a leading producer of cold-pressed virgin coconut oil, made from fresh coconut kernel, not copra, with widely available certified-organic and Fair Trade lines. Packaging runs from bulk flexitanks to retail-ready jars and bottles.

Forms & grades: Cold-pressed virgin; conventional, organic or Fair Trade; bulk or retail-packed. Browse current listings on our Virgin Coconut Oil category page.

Duty & tariff treatment for Indonesia

There is no bilateral FTA between Sri Lanka and Indonesia, so imports follow Indonesia’s standard (MFN) tariff. Confirm your HS line. With a huge population, Indonesia is a large and growing market for imported food and ingredients.

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 Indonesia Customs (DJBC), and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our landed-cost calculator. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.

Import requirements for Indonesia

Typical requirements for bringing Virgin Coconut Oil into Indonesia include:

  • Food registration with BPOM and import licensing; Indonesian (Bahasa) labeling.
  • Halal certification (BPJPH) is mandatory for many food categories.
  • 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 export documents checklist for the full set.
