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 버진 코코넛 오일. 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 China

Sri Lanka and China both belong to the Asia-Pacific Trade Agreement (APTA), which grants tariff concessions (a margin of preference) on a list of products. Not blanket duty-free, so confirm whether your HS line is covered. (A China–Sri Lanka FTA has been negotiated but is not yet in force.)

APTA preference requires an APTA Certificate of Origin for products on the concession schedule.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the 중국 해관총서 (GACC), 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.

Import requirements for China

Typical requirements for bringing Coconut Oil into China include:

  • GACC registration (China Customs) is mandatory for overseas food manufacturers/exporters before shipping food to China.
  • CIQ inspection on arrival, Chinese labeling, and product-specific protocols (e.g. for tea, spices).
  • 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 수출 서류 체크리스트 for the full set.
