Who supplies Poppy Seed to Saudi Arabia?
YouPals exports Poppy Seed from India to Saudi Arabia in bulk — in the grade and packing you specify, steam-treated and lab-tested to Saudi Arabia requirements, from sample quantities up to full container loads.
Shipping Poppy Seed to Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia is a Middle East market that took 5% 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 Saudi Arabia, Poppy Seed classifies under ITC-HS 1207 91 00. Ask us to confirm Saudi Arabia’s current duty on that line before you commit — we would rather verify it than quote a rate that turns out wrong.
On Saudi Arabia specifically
No dedicated ITC-HS line — Poppy Seed is not separable in any trade dataset, so no Saudi Arabia-specific figure can exist.
That does not change what we ship you — it only means we will not print a Saudi Arabia 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 poppy seed contract
- Trade is administered, not free-market: cultivation of the opium poppy is licensed and narcotics-regulated, so provenance, permits and documentation govern availability and quantities.
- The ripe seed itself is opiate-free (alkaloids are in the unripe pod latex), which is why the food seed trades legitimately even though the crop is controlled; buyers should still expect regulatory paperwork.
- Available as whole clean seed and as cold-pressed poppy-seed oil; the white/cream type is the culinary standard for Indian buyers.
- Graded on colour (bright cream-white), uniformity, cleanliness and freedom from grit; sortex/cleaning removes stone, dust and foreign matter.
