Bay Leaf supplier in European Union

We export Bay Leaf from India to European Union in bulk — true Mediterranean bay (Laurus nobilis) — not to be confused with the Cinnamomum "Indian bay leaf" (tejpat).

Bay Leaf for export from India to European Union

Who supplies Bay Leaf to European Union?

YouPals exports Bay Leaf from India to European Union in bulk — in the grade and packing you specify, steam-treated and lab-tested to European Union requirements, from sample quantities up to full container loads.

Shipping Bay Leaf to European Union

European Union is a Europe market that took 9% of India’s spice export value in FY2025-26. Consignments of Bay Leaf to European Union usually route through Rotterdam or Hamburg.

On entry to European Union, Bay Leaf classifies under ITC-HS 0910 99 99. Ask us to confirm European Union’s current duty on that line before you commit — we would rather verify it than quote a rate that turns out wrong.

On European Union specifically

No dedicated ITC-HS line — Bay Leaf is not separable in any trade dataset, so no European Union-specific figure can exist.

That does not change what we ship you — it only means we will not print a European Union 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 bay leaf contract

  • Pin the botanical name on every enquiry: Laurus nobilis (true bay) and Cinnamomum tamala (tejpat) are different spices with different aromas and are not interchangeable
  • Available whole (hand-selected or field-run) and ground; whole leaf is the premium and most verifiable format
  • Grading turns on whole unbroken leaves, even colour, aroma retention and freedom from yellowing, spotting and stalk
  • Cleaning, de-stemming and grading are coordinated with vetted third-party processors rather than owned lines

What this page does not tell you

Origin
Much "bay leaf" in Indian trade is tejpat or imported Laurus; origin needs care.
