Why source Ceylon Cinnamon from Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is the home of සැබෑ කුරුඳු (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 Russia

Russia applies the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) Common Customs Tariff, and Sri Lanka is a beneficiary of the EAEU’s tariff-preference scheme for developing countries, reduced duty on covered goods, so confirm whether your HS line is included. Russia is one of the world’s largest buyers of Ceylon තේ.

The EAEU preference requires a valid proof of origin (Form A / origin declaration) for covered goods.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the EAEU / Russia customs tariff, and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our ගොඩ-ලාගාන කැල්කියුලේටරය. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.

Import requirements for Russia

Typical requirements for bringing Ceylon Cinnamon into Russia include:

  • EAEU conformity (EAC declaration/certificate) and Russian/EAEU labeling for food products.
  • A ශාක සනීපාරක්ෂක සහතිකය (Phytosanitary Certificate) (cleared by Rosselkhoznadzor) for plant products.
  • Confirm current banking, payment and sanctions arrangements before contracting. These have changed and can affect settlement and logistics.

Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our අපනයන ලේඛන පිරික්සුම් ලැයිස්තුව for the full set.
