Who supplies Green Cardamom to United Kingdom?
YouPals exports Green Cardamom 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 Green Cardamom 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, Green Cardamom classifies under ITC-HS 0908 31 20. 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.
Green Cardamom grades we ship to United Kingdom
| Grade | Specification | Bought for |
|---|---|---|
| Cardamom AGEB (8mm bold)AGEB | 7–8 mm | Alleppey Green Extra Bold — the 7–8 mm, deep-green top grade that commands the auction premium. |
On United Kingdom specifically
We hold no United Kingdom-specific duty, border-check or trade figure for Green Cardamom. The page shows Green Cardamom's own verified data instead.
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 green cardamom contract
- Available as whole capsules graded by size (6 mm / 7 mm / 8 mm / AGEB bold), and as decorticated seed and ground powder
- Sized over calibrated sieves and colour-sorted; bleached (sulphured) versus natural-green lots must be specified, as buyers increasingly reject bleaching
- Steam-sterilised, ETO-free material available and recommended for the EU, with a recent pesticide-residue panel
- Aroma degrades with time and heat, so buyers favour current-crop capsules and moisture-controlled, foil-lined vacuum or nitrogen-flushed packing to hold colour and oil

Frequently asked
Can I import Green Cardamom from India into United Kingdom?
Yes. We export Green Cardamom from India to United Kingdom. We publish Green Cardamom's verified specification here; we do not publish a United Kingdom-specific duty figure we have not confirmed.
What sizes of green cardamom does India export?
The common export grades are 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm and bold/AGEB (Alleppey Green Extra Bold). Larger, greener capsules command a premium; size is specified in millimetres on the contract.
Is Indian green cardamom available ETO-free?
Yes — steam-sterilised, ethylene-oxide-free lots are available and are increasingly the default for EU buyers, since the EU has treated ETO as a banned pesticide with a 0.1 mg/kg default limit since well before the 2021 residue alerts.
What this page does not tell you
- Indicative FOB price
- Cardamom is auction-priced and moves daily. We do not publish a price a buyer would plan against and find wrong; the Spices Board daily auction feed is the live reference.
