Why source Coconut Oil from Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is a leading exporter of coconut oil and value-added coconut products, from crude and RBD oil to certified 初榨椰子油. Organic and Fair Trade certified lines are widely available, with packaging from bulk flexitanks to retail-ready.

Forms & grades: Crude, RBD and virgin coconut oil; conventional or certified organic. Browse current listings on our Coconut Oil category page.

Duty & tariff treatment for Japan

Sri Lanka is a beneficiary of Japan’s GSP scheme, which reduces or removes duty on many products, but Japan excludes or limits a number of agricultural lines, so confirm whether your specific HS line qualifies. Japan is a premium, quality-driven market, especially for Ceylon tea and spices.

A GSP Certificate of Origin (Form A) is required to claim the preference; confirm current evidence rules.

Always confirm the current rate. Tariffs and preference schemes change. Check your exact HS line in the Japan Customs tariff schedule, 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 Japan

Typical requirements for bringing Coconut Oil into Japan include:

  • Import notification under Japan’s Food Sanitation Act (MHLW), tested against Japan’s strict pesticide-residue (MRL) limits, residue compliance is critical, particularly for tea.
  • Plant-quarantine clearance (MAFF) for plant products, with a phytosanitary certificate.
  • Japanese labeling, and for organic goods JAS Organic certification.

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.
