Your Comprehensive Guide to Wholesale Catappa Leaves Import from Indonesia
POSTED ON DEC 7, 2025 | TOPIC: WHOLESALE & EXPORT LOGISTICS
For international distributors and large-scale aquarists, sourcing bulk Catappa leaves requires robust logistics and documentation. As a dedicated exporter from Indonesia, PT Aloka Cipta Mandiri simplifies the complex B2B wholesale process, ensuring compliance and Grade A quality upon arrival.
Essential Export Documentation: The Phytosanitary Certificate
A Phytosanitary Certificate (PC) is mandatory for importing any botanical material into most countries (including the US, EU, and UK). This document proves the Indian Almond Leaves (Catappa) are free from pests, contaminants, and diseases. We handle the necessary inspections and processing with the Indonesian quarantine agency to guarantee a smooth customs clearance for your bulk supply of botanicals.
- Certificate of Origin (COO): Proving the leaves were genuinely sourced and processed in Indonesia.
- Commercial Invoice: For customs valuation and payment processing.
- Packing List: Detailing the weight and dimensions of the containers/pallets.
Key Shipping Terms: Understanding FOB vs. CIF
When ordering wholesale Catappa leaves, you must choose between common Incoterms:
- FOB (Free On Board): The seller (us) covers all costs and risks until the product is loaded onto the vessel at the Indonesian port. After that, the buyer assumes cost and risk. Ideal for large importers with existing freight forwarder contacts.
- CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight): The seller covers all costs, insurance, and freight up to the designated port in the buyer's country. Easier for first-time or smaller bulk buyers.
Quality Assurance for Bulk Sourcing
We know that mold and debris are major issues for wholesale aquatic botanicals. Our quality control involves multiple sorting stages, UV sterilization (optional), and vacuum packing to prevent contamination during transit. We welcome third-party pre-shipment inspection for all bulk container orders.
