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 VCO. 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 South Korea

Sri Lanka and South Korea are both APTA members, giving tariff concessions on listed products (a margin of preference, not full duty-free). Confirm whether your HS line is on the schedule.

An APTA Certificate of Origin is required to claim the concession.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Korea Customs Service, 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 South Korea

Typical requirements for bringing Coconut Oil into South Korea include:

  • Food imports are regulated by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) with an import declaration and inspection.
  • Korean labeling, and import permits for certain agricultural products.
  • A phytosanitary / health certificate for plant and food products.

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.
