Import from Sri Lanka to Bangladesh: every product, one page →
Fresh Ceylon Cinnamon crop typically lands May–November (peeled year-round), see the harvest calendar.
Why source Ceylon Cinnamon from Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is the home of true cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum), sweeter, lower in coumarin and far more prized than the cassia sold as “cinnamon” elsewhere. Over 80% of the world’s true cinnamon comes from Sri Lanka, graded by quill quality (Alba, C5 Special, C5) with full traceability to the estate.
Forms & grades: Quills (Alba / C5 Special / C5), quillings, and ground powder. Browse current listings on our Ceylon Cinnamon category page.
Duty & tariff treatment for Bangladesh
Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are both members of the South Asian Free Trade Area (SAFTA) (and APTA), giving tariff concessions on covered products. Sensitive items sit on a negative list, and as Bangladesh produces its own tea, confirm whether your product is eligible.
SAFTA preference requires a SAFTA Certificate of Origin meeting the agreement’s value-addition and consignment rules.
Import requirements for Bangladesh
Typical requirements for bringing Ceylon Cinnamon into Bangladesh include:
- Import through a Bangladeshi importer (usually on a letter of credit) meeting BSTI standards and labeling.
- A phytosanitary / health certificate for plant and food products.
- Confirm the product is not restricted under the SAFTA negative list.
Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our export documents checklist for the full set.
