Duty & tariff treatment for Colombia

There is no trade agreement between Sri Lanka and Colombia, so goods from Sri Lanka enter at Colombia’s standard (MFN) rate, with IVA on top.

Standard commercial documents and a certificate of origin from Sri Lanka. Confirm the current rate for your subpartida in the DIAN tariff.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the DIAN tariff lookup (MUISCA), 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 Colombia

Typical requirements for bringing Desiccated Coconut into Colombia include:

  • Desiccated Coconut is a processed food, so INVIMA sanitary registration or notification applies; confirm the requirement for your product and pack.
  • Check with ICA whether your product needs a phytosanitary document; processed foods often do not.
  • Spanish labelling on retail packs.

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.
