Why source Coconut-Shell Activated Carbon from Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is a leading exporter of 椰壳活性炭, graded by iodine number / activity. It is used in water and air treatment, gold recovery, food & beverage processing and energy storage, a fast-growing global market.

Forms & grades: Granular (GAC), powdered (PAC) or pelletised; by iodine number / activity grade. Browse current listings on our Coconut-Shell Activated Carbon category page.

Duty & tariff treatment for South Korea

Sri Lanka and South Korea are both APTA members, giving tariff concessions on listed products (a margin of preference, not full duty-free). Confirm whether your HS line is on the schedule.

An APTA Certificate of Origin is required to claim the concession.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Korea Customs Service, and estimate duty + freight + insurance together with our 到岸成本计算器. We don’t publish line-item tariff figures because they move and depend on your precise product and origin proof.

Import requirements for South Korea

Coconut-Shell Activated Carbon is an industrial or horticultural product rather than a foodstuff, so it generally falls outside food-safety registration when entering South Korea. Activated carbon is traded on technical specs (iodine number, ash, mesh); the EU also requires REACH compliance, and water- or food-grade carbon must meet the relevant purity standards (e.g. NSF, EN 12915). Always confirm the exact requirements for your product and grade with South Korea’s customs and standards authority.

Your exporter prepares the commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin; see our 出口文件核对清单 for the full set.
