Import requirements for UK
Coconut-Shell Activated Carbon is an industrial or horticultural product rather than a foodstuff, so it generally falls outside food-safety registration when entering the United Kingdom. Activated carbon is traded on technical specs (iodine number, ash, mesh); the EU also requires REACH compliance, and water- or food-grade carbon must meet the relevant purity standards (e.g. NSF, EN 12915). Always confirm the exact requirements for your product and grade with UK’s customs and standards authority.
Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our 輸出書類チェックリスト for the full set.
