Cinnamon supplier in Japan
We export Cinnamon from India to Japan in bulk — true cinnamon (C. zeylanicum) — the low-coumarin species, distinct from the cassia India also lists separately.
Who supplies Cinnamon to Japan?
YouPals exports Cinnamon from India to Japan in bulk — in the grade and packing you specify, steam-treated and lab-tested to Japan requirements, from sample quantities up to full container loads.
Shipping Cinnamon to Japan
Japan is a East Asia market that took 2% 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 Japan, Cinnamon classifies under ITC-HS 0906 11 10. Ask us to confirm Japan’s current duty on that line before you commit — we would rather verify it than quote a rate that turns out wrong.
On Japan specifically
No dedicated ITC-HS line — Cinnamon is not separable in any trade dataset, so no Japan-specific figure can exist.
That does not change what we ship you — it only means we will not print a Japan 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 cinnamon contract
- Available as quills (rolled sticks), quillings/featherings/chips, ground powder, and bark and leaf oil and oleoresin through the extraction trade
- The decisive sourcing decision is species: for a coumarin-sensitive market, contract explicitly for Cinnamomum zeylanicum (true/Ceylon-type) and require it not be substituted with cassia
- For EU-bound cinnamon products, specify coumarin testing against the applicable food-category limits and keep the certificate of analysis on file (eurlex915)
- Quills are fragile and bulky and cube out (fill volume before weight), so packaging and careful loading protect grade and margin; chips and ground forms ship denser
