Asafoetida supplier in United Kingdom
We export Asafoetida from India to United Kingdom in bulk — india consumes most of the world’s hing but grows almost none of the raw resin — it compounds and re-exports it.
Who supplies Asafoetida to United Kingdom?
YouPals exports Asafoetida from India to United Kingdom in bulk — in the grade and packing you specify, steam-treated and lab-tested to United Kingdom requirements, from sample quantities up to full container loads.
Shipping Asafoetida to United Kingdom
United Kingdom is a Europe market that took 3% of India’s spice export value in FY2025-26. We ship from the Indian gateway ports — Mundra and Nhava Sheva on the west coast, Cochin and Tuticorin in the south — on the sailing that fits your schedule.
On entry to United Kingdom, Asafoetida classifies under ITC-HS 1301 90 13. Ask us to confirm United Kingdom’s current duty on that line before you commit — we would rather verify it than quote a rate that turns out wrong.
On United Kingdom specifically
No dedicated ITC-HS line — Asafoetida is not separable in any trade dataset, so no United Kingdom-specific figure can exist.
That does not change what we ship you — it only means we will not print a United Kingdom duty figure we have not verified. Ask us and we will confirm the current rate for your HS line before you commit.

What to specify on a asafoetida contract
- Two distinct product classes: imported pure/raw resin (lumps) and compounded hing (powder or bandhani lump); confirm which is being bought
- Compounded hing carries edible gum, flour (wheat/rice) and oil, so wheat/gluten is a material allergen-declaration point for many markets
- Resin strength varies widely; specify resin content or aroma-strength grade rather than assuming powder equals pure resin
- Cleaning and grading of raw resin (removing grit, sand and bark) and compounding are coordinated with vetted third-party processors, not owned lines
Frequently asked
Can I import Asafoetida from India into United Kingdom?
Yes. We export Asafoetida from India to United Kingdom. We publish Asafoetida's verified specification here; we do not publish a United Kingdom-specific duty figure we have not confirmed.
What this page does not tell you
- Raw-resin origin
- Most raw asafoetida is imported; "Indian hing" is typically compounded, not India-grown. Claims must reflect this.
