Forms & grades: Whole hand-picked; conventional or organic; also for oil / oleoresin. Browse current listings on our Cloves category page.
Duty & tariff treatment for Singapore
Singapore is a free port: nearly all imports enter duty-free regardless of origin (only a few items such as alcohol and tobacco are dutiable), and the Sri Lanka–Singapore FTA (SLSFTA, 2018) further locks this in. Singapore is a major re-export gateway into ASEAN and beyond.
Duty is rarely an issue; for any SLSFTA-specific benefit a Certificate of Origin meeting the 35% value-addition + change-of-tariff-heading rule is used.
