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 Turkey

Turkey grants GSP preferences to Sri Lanka under its “developing country” tier (revised in 2010, so some margins are smaller than before). Many industrial lines benefit, but agricultural tariffs can still be high. Confirm the rate for your specific product.

A GSP proof of origin (Form A / origin declaration) is needed to claim the preference.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Turkey Trade / customs tariff, 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 Turkey

Typical requirements for bringing Coconut Oil into Turkey include:

  • Food imports are controlled by the Ministry of Agriculture & Forestry, with a control certificate and Turkish labeling.
  • A phytosanitary / health certificate for plant and food products.
  • For organic goods, certification recognized under Turkish organic rules.

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