### 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](/spices-herbs/).

### 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)](https://www.beacukai.go.id/), and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our [landed-cost calculator](/freight-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 Cloves 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](/sri-lanka-export-documents-checklist/) for the full set.
