Why source Nutmeg & Mace from Sri Lanka

Sri Lankan nutmeg and its lacy red aril, ජාතිපත්‍රී, are grown in the wet-zone hills and valued for their high essential-oil content. Sold whole or ground, and as feedstock for nutmeg oil and oleoresin.

Forms & grades: Whole nutmeg & mace, or ground; conventional or organic; also for oil / oleoresin. Browse current listings on our Nutmeg & Mace category page.

Duty & tariff treatment for Guatemala

There is no trade agreement between Sri Lanka and Guatemala, so goods from Sri Lanka enter at the Central American common tariff (MFN) rate, with IVA on top.

Standard commercial documents and a certificate of origin from Sri Lanka. Confirm the current rate for your line with SAT.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the SAT Guatemala, 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.
