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 Chile

Standard commercial documents and a certificate of origin from Sri Lanka. Confirm the rate for your line with Chilean Customs.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Chilean Customs (Aduanas), and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our 도착 가격 계산기. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.
