Turmeric supplier in Netherlands
We export Turmeric from India to Netherlands in bulk — curcumin is an origin fact, not a grade you can dial up — Alleppey finger’s 4–6% floor sits above Nizamabad’s ceiling.

Who supplies Turmeric to Netherlands?
YouPals exports Turmeric from India to Netherlands in bulk — in the grade and packing you specify, steam-treated and lab-tested to Netherlands requirements, from sample quantities up to full container loads.
Shipping Turmeric to Netherlands
Netherlands is a Europe market that took 2% of India’s spice export value in FY2025-26. Consignments of Turmeric to Netherlands usually route through Rotterdam.
Netherlands is also a re-export hub, so part of the Turmeric that lands here moves onward rather than being consumed locally — worth pricing in when you compare quotes.
On entry to Netherlands, Turmeric classifies under ITC-HS 0910 30 10. Ask us to confirm Netherlands’s current duty on that line before you commit — we would rather verify it than quote a rate that turns out wrong.
Turmeric grades we ship to Netherlands
| Grade | Specification | Bought for |
|---|---|---|
| Alleppey Finger Turmeric | 4–6% curcumin | The high-curcumin finger — 4–6%, the grade nutraceutical and colour buyers target. (A traded grade, not a GI.) |
| Erode Finger Turmeric | 2.5–3% curcumin | The GI Erode finger — 2.5–3% curcumin, bright colour, the Tamil Nadu benchmark. |
| Nizamabad Bulb Turmeric | 1.5–2.25% curcumin | High-volume Telangana bulb at 1.5–2.25% curcumin — the commodity tier, priced below the fingers. |
On Netherlands specifically
We hold no Netherlands-specific duty, border-check or trade figure for Turmeric. The page shows Turmeric's own verified data instead.
That does not change what we ship you — it only means we will not print a Netherlands 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 turmeric contract
- Available as finger and bulb whole rhizome, powder, and as oleoresin and curcumin extract
- Specify curcumin percentage, finger vs bulb, moisture (export finger typically ≤12%), colour and polish, with the test method stated
- Curcumin is origin-driven, so buyers targeting high curcumin should specify an Alleppey-type/high-curcumin grade rather than expect processing to raise it
- Cleaned and polished; powder is milled to a specified mesh and colour; extracts are bought on standardised curcumin content
Compliance we ship against
Frequently asked
Can I import Turmeric from India into Netherlands?
Yes. We export Turmeric from India to Netherlands. We publish Turmeric's verified specification here; we do not publish a Netherlands-specific duty figure we have not confirmed.
How much curcumin should export turmeric have?
It depends on origin and use. Alleppey-type finger turmeric runs 4–6% curcumin (nutraceutical/colour buyers target this); Erode is ~2.5–3%; high-volume Nizamabad bulb is ~1.5–2.25%. The curcumin figure and test method should be stated on the contract.
What is lead chromate in turmeric and how is it avoided?
Lead chromate is an illegal yellow pigment sometimes added to brighten turmeric. It is avoided by sourcing traceable lots and requiring accredited heavy-metal (lead) test reports on every consignment.
