Thyme for export from India to Saudi Arabia

Who supplies Thyme to Saudi Arabia?

YouPals exports Thyme 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 Thyme 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, Thyme classifies under ITC-HS 1211 90 99. 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 — Thyme 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 thyme contract

  • Available as dried leaf (whole/cut), thymol-rich thyme oil, and thyme/thymol extract; leaf, oil and extract are distinct products with distinct specs.
  • Culinary leaf is graded on green colour, aroma, leaf-to-stem ratio and cleanliness; oil and extract are specified on thymol content, so state the intended use up front.
  • Thyme oil and thymol extract are a real demand driver alongside culinary leaf; buyers should specify thymol level and volatile profile for oil/extract lots.
  • As a dried herb, leaf carries the pyrrolizidine-alkaloid concern from co-harvested weeds (EU limit 400 µg/kg for dried herbs), so weed-clean sourcing and testing support EU acceptability.
