Duty & tariff treatment for Thailand

There is no bilateral FTA in force between Sri Lanka and Thailand, so imports follow Thailand’s standard (MFN) tariff. Confirm your HS line. Thailand is a notable market and processing hub for spices, coconut and rubber-based products.

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 Thai Customs Department, and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our landed-cost calculator. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.

Import requirements for Thailand

Essential Oils is an industrial or horticultural product rather than a foodstuff, so it generally falls outside food-safety registration when entering Thailand. Essential oils are traded on purity / GC specifications; cosmetic-use oils follow the market’s cosmetics rules (e.g. EU Cosmetics Regulation, IFRA), and food-flavor oils may additionally need food-safety clearance. Always confirm the exact requirements for your product and grade with Thailand’s customs and standards authority.

Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our export documents checklist for the full set.
