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 virgin coconut oil. 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 Chile

Chile applies a flat general import tariff to most goods, and there is no trade agreement with Sri Lanka. IVA is charged on the CIF value plus duty.

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 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 Chile

Typical requirements for bringing Coconut Oil into Chile include:

  • Coconut Oil is a processed food: customs release and use authorisation go through the health authority (SEREMI de Salud), with Spanish labelling; confirm for your product.
  • Check SAG’s requirements for your product; SAG is strict on plant material, so confirm before shipping even for processed goods.

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