Why South Korean Buyers Source from BlackSeedSource
An importer bringing a new botanical oil into South Korea carries the paperwork burden, not the supplier. So the practical question when choosing a source is narrow: can this manufacturer produce a complete, lot-matched document set on time, every time, without being chased for it. That is what this page is about.
We press the seed ourselves in Hatay, Türkiye, which means the analysis, the origin evidence and the shipment records all originate from one place rather than being reassembled from a trading chain. Each lot is tested by GC-FID and its COA and quality documentation is issued against the batch number that appears on the container. The full export document set is prepared in English before the shipment departs.
Pilot-first is the workflow we recommend. Start with an air sample and its batch COA, review the oil and the paperwork side by side, then move to bulk drum or IBC supply. Private-label bottling is also available.
Supply Formats and Batch Traceability
A pilot begins at 10 liters. Recurring supply runs in 25 L / 50 L / 200 L drums or a 1000 L IBC, depending on how your filling or blending line receives bulk oil. Bottled formats are available where a buyer needs retail-ready packs instead of bulk containers.
Traceability runs on the lot number. It is written on the container, printed on the COA, and repeated across the shipment documents, so a question raised months later about a specific drum can be answered against the original analysis rather than an average.
Thymoquinone grades: standard around 1%, high grade around 1.5%, with a representative verified lot at 1.93% (GC-FID). These are batch-specific values reported per lot on the COA, not a fixed specification.

South Korea Import Support
The division of labour is straightforward. We supply the manufacturer-side evidence — lot identity, analysis, origin, safety data and the commercial documents — and prepare a document in a specific layout when your filing agent asks for it. The filing itself sits with the importer.
We provide product and shipment documentation to support your review and Korean import filing workflow. Final classification, filing, labeling and compliance with MFDS requirements remain the responsibility of the importing company.
Frequently Asked Questions — South Korea
Do you supply black seed oil to buyers in South Korea?
Yes. We press cold-pressed Nigella sativa oil at our own facility in Hatay, Türkiye and export to South Korean importers, ingredient distributors and supplement companies. Standard terms are FOB Mersin, with CIF or DAP to your port on request, and transit time is confirmed at quote.
What documents come with a South Korea shipment?
Each shipment carries a batch Certificate of Analysis with a GC-FID thymoquinone value, a Safety Data Sheet, a Certificate of Origin, a product specification sheet and the commercial export documents. Organic lot documentation is available for qualified organic lots, and halal-oriented documentation can be provided on request. All commercial documents are issued in English.
What is the minimum order and can I start with a pilot?
Bulk supply starts at a 10 liters pilot. That volume is deliberately small so your team can evaluate the oil and the document set together before scaling to 25 L / 50 L / 200 L drums or a 1000 L IBC.
How is import support divided between supplier and importer?
We provide product and shipment documentation to support your review and Korean import filing workflow. Final classification, filing, labeling and compliance with MFDS requirements remain the responsibility of the importing company.
What thymoquinone levels are available?
Standard grade runs at around 1% thymoquinone and high grade at around 1.5%. A representative verified lot measured 1.93% (GC-FID). Thymoquinone is batch-specific and is reported on the COA for the lot offered, so it should be read per lot rather than as a fixed specification.
