Sri Lanka Lifts Import Controls On Sanitary Ware And Ceramic Tiles - Blog - 1

According to a communique issued by President Ranil Wickremesinghe on October 9, Sri Lanka has lifted import controls

on more than 60 commodities.Sanitary ware, tiles, freezers, aluminium bars, fishing boats and yachts were removed from

the import control ban list.Prohibited items imported earlier and held at ports will be released after paying an additional

duty of 15%.

Cars are still banned. Finance Minister Ranjith Siyambalapitiya said Sri Lanka had missed revenue targets partly because

of a ban on car imports.

Sri Lanka reined in imports in 2020 after printing money to cut interest rates and boost growth (targeting potential output

with easy money) tipped the balance, leading to external defaults.

Sri Lanka typically prints money to lower interest rates and control what economic bureaucrats call “non-essential imports,”

which attract the highest tax rates, reduce revenues and trigger more money printing to maintain a fixed policy rate, leading

to a series of policy errors.

Statistics show that in 2022, the bilateral trade volume between China and Sri Lanka was 4.25 billion US dollars, down 27.8%

year-on-year.

At present, China’s main imports from Sri Lanka include rubber and its products, black tea, precious stones and coconut oil,

and its main exports include textiles, mechanical and electrical products, building materials, hardware and medicine. Some

famous Chinese products, such as Haier household appliances, Huawei mobile phones and light riding motorcycles, have

entered the Sri Lankan market.
