Who supplies Kokam to United Arab Emirates?

Shipping Kokam to United Arab Emirates

United Arab Emirates is a Middle East market that took 9% of India’s spice export value in FY2025-26. Consignments of Kokam to United Arab Emirates usually route through Jebel Ali (Dubai).

United Arab Emirates is also a re-export hub, so part of the Kokam that lands here moves onward rather than being consumed locally — worth pricing in when you compare quotes.

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

On United Arab Emirates specifically

No dedicated ITC-HS line — Kokam is not separable in any trade dataset, so no United Arab Emirates-specific figure can exist.

That does not change what we ship you — it only means we will not print a United Arab Emirates 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 kokam contract

Available as dried rind (salted and unsalted), as kokum syrup/concentrate (agal), as kokum butter, and as hydroxycitric-acid-bearing extract
Grade the rind on colour (a dark, glossy near-black), pliability, moisture and cleanliness; declare salted vs unsalted, since salt content affects formulation
Good rind is sun-dried in the pre-monsoon window and holds well cool, dry and in barrier packaging; poorly dried rind goes brittle, pale and mould-prone
Specify whether you want GI Sindhudurg/Ratnagiri origin, and verify the GI status and traceability on the register before making a GI claim (giRegistry)
