Why source Ceylon Cinnamon from Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is the home of true cinnamon (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 Argentina

Argentina applies the Mercosur common external tariff, and there is no trade agreement with Sri Lanka. Expect IVA, the statistics fee and tax perceptions on top of duty.

Standard commercial documents and a certificate of origin from Sri Lanka. Confirm the treatment for your NCM line with ARCA (formerly AFIP).

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the ARCA (AFIP) tariff treatment, and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our toplam maliyet hesaplayıcısı. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.
