Import requirements for The Maldives

Essential Oils is an industrial or horticultural product rather than a foodstuff, so it generally falls outside food-safety registration when entering the Maldives. Essential oils are traded on purity / GC specifications; cosmetic-use oils follow the market’s cosmetics rules (e.g. EU Cosmetics Regulation, IFRA), and food-flavor oils may additionally need food-safety clearance. Always confirm the exact requirements for your product and grade with The Maldives’s customs and standards authority.

Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our İhracat belgeleri kontrol listesi for the full set.
