Why source Coconut Oil from Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is a leading exporter of coconut oil and value-added coconut products, from crude and RBD oil to certified バージンココナッツオイル(VCO). Organic and Fair Trade certified lines are widely available, with packaging from bulk flexitanks to retail-ready.
Forms & grades: Crude, RBD and virgin coconut oil; conventional or certified organic. Browse current listings on our Coconut Oil category page.
Duty & tariff treatment for Japan
Sri Lanka is a beneficiary of Japan’s GSP scheme, which reduces or removes duty on many products, but Japan excludes or limits a number of agricultural lines, so confirm whether your specific HS line qualifies. Japan is a premium, quality-driven market, especially for Ceylon tea and spices.
A GSP Certificate of Origin (Form A) is required to claim the preference; confirm current evidence rules.
Import requirements for Japan
Typical requirements for bringing Coconut Oil into Japan include:
- Import notification under Japan’s Food Sanitation Act (MHLW), tested against Japan’s strict pesticide-residue (MRL) limits, residue compliance is critical, particularly for tea.
- Plant-quarantine clearance (MAFF) for plant products, with a phytosanitary certificate.
- Japanese labeling, and for organic goods JAS Organic certification.
