Star Anise supplier in United Arab Emirates
We export Star Anise from India to United Arab Emirates in bulk — the star-shaped badian of garam-masala blends — largely re-exported, as India grows little.

Shipping Star Anise 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 Star Anise to United Arab Emirates usually route through Jebel Ali (Dubai).
United Arab Emirates is also a re-export hub, so part of the Star Anise that lands here moves onward rather than being consumed locally — worth pricing in when you compare quotes.
On entry to United Arab Emirates, Star Anise classifies under ITC-HS 0909 61 00. 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 — Star Anise 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 star anise contract
- Available as whole stars (graded by wholeness and size), broken/segment star anise, and ground; also as star-anise oil/oleoresin
- Graded on the proportion of intact whole stars, size, colour and aroma strength, and freedom from grit, dust and mould
- Botanical safety is the critical flag: material must be verified as genuine Illicium verum and screened against the toxic look-alike Illicium anisatum (Japanese star anise), which is not safe for food use
- Origin must be represented honestly: much Indian-channel star anise is imported (China/Vietnam) and re-exported or blend-incorporated, not India-grown, so avoid unqualified "Indian origin" claims
