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 кокосовое масло первого отжима (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 Japan

Sri Lanka is a beneficiary of Japan’s GSP scheme, which reduces or removes duty on many products, but Japan excludes or limits a number of agricultural lines, so confirm whether your specific HS line qualifies. Japan is a premium, quality-driven market, especially for Ceylon tea and spices.

A GSP Certificate of Origin (Form A) is required to claim the preference; confirm current evidence rules.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Japan Customs tariff schedule, and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our калькулятор стоимости с учетом всех расходов. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.

Import requirements for Japan

Typical requirements for bringing Coconut Oil into Japan include:

  • Import notification under Japan’s Food Sanitation Act (MHLW), tested against Japan’s strict pesticide-residue (MRL) limits, residue compliance is critical, particularly for tea.
  • Plant-quarantine clearance (MAFF) for plant products, with a phytosanitary certificate.
  • Japanese labeling, and for organic goods JAS Organic certification.

Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our чек-лист экспортных документов for the full set.
