Seaports	Colombo, Hambantota
Airports	Colombo Bandaranaike (CMB)
Dangerous goods	IMDG by sea, IATA DGR by air

APIs and medicines require NMRA registration and an import licence, so the importer should have both in place before ordering. Precursor chemicals are controlled by the National Dangerous Drugs Control Board, and some chemicals also need an import control licence from the Department of Imports and Exports Control. The Central Environmental Authority covers environmental matters. To claim a tariff concession, tell us whether you will use the India–Sri Lanka FTA, SAFTA or APTA so we issue the correct certificate of origin. Dangerous goods follow IMDG or IATA rules.

Questions

Inorganics & Metals for Sri Lanka

Can Zemixal deliver inorganics & metals to Sri Lanka?

Yes. We ship by sea to Colombo and Hambantota, by air cargo or by express courier depending on quantity and urgency. Every lot carries a COA and a 16-section GHS SDS.

Which documents come with a inorganics & metals shipment to Sri Lanka?

Commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of analysis and SDS as standard, plus the bill of lading or air waybill and a certificate of origin. Anything specific to Central Environmental Authority / NDDCB (precursors) is agreed with you at quote stage.

How long does delivery to Sri Lanka take?

Allow 3–6 days for ocean transit or 1–3 days by air, plus packing, export clearance and import clearance. The timeline on this page shows each stage.

What does 'trace metals basis' mean on an inorganic product?

It means the stated purity is calculated from the measured levels of metallic impurities, usually by ICP-MS or ICP-OES, rather than from a direct assay of the main component. Non-metallic impurities such as oxygen, carbon or moisture may not be included. Check the COA to see which elements were tested and their limits.

Can metals be cut or sized to my drawing?

Many foils, rods, plates and targets can be supplied in custom dimensions, thicknesses or diameters. Send a drawing or the key measurements with the tolerance you need. We will confirm feasibility, lead time and the purity available in that form before quoting, since some shapes are only made from certain grades.
