Export saffron from Iran

Exporting saffron from Iran – documents and process

Exporting saffron from Iran involves more than filling a carton and sending it overseas. Importing countries often require specific documentation, lab analysis and compliance with food safety rules. This page summarises how Azpaeez can support you through the export process.

Key export documents for saffron shipments

While requirements differ between countries, most saffron exports from Iran rely on a combination of core documents such as the commercial invoice and packing list, Certificate of Origin, phytosanitary certificate and laboratory analysis.

Health and phytosanitary certificates

Many markets request proof that the saffron has been inspected and meets local sanitary requirements. We coordinate this with the relevant authorities.

Lab analysis according to ISO 3632

Colouring strength and other quality parameters are measured so that your quality team and local authorities can validate the product.

Working with your freight and customs partners

Depending on your structure, you may already have freight forwarders and customs brokers in place. We are used to working with such partners and can coordinate timings, documentation and labelling to reduce friction and delays.
