Indian Peanuts for Malaysia, Tested Against the 15 ppb Aflatoxin Limit Before Loading
Bold, Java and blanched kernels (kacang tanah) from Gujarat, shipped with the APEDA Certificate of Export and aflatoxin analysis.
Elysium Agri Corporation supplies Indian peanut kernels to importers, wholesalers and food manufacturers in Malaysia. Bold, Java, TJ, blanched and roasted grades come from specialist processing units in Gujarat. Every lot is tested at an NABL-accredited lab and loaded at Mundra, Kandla or Pipavav.
Malaysia took about 6.5% of India's groundnut exports in 2024-25. One point decides each shipment: aflatoxin. APEDA, India's export authority, applies a limit of 15 ppb total aflatoxin for Malaysia. A lot above that limit does not receive a Certificate of Export.

What Peanuts Need to Enter Malaysia
A peanut shipment must pass India's export controls and Malaysia's import permit. You hold the permit; we handle the Indian side.
- A MAQIS import permit, issued to you through the e-permit system before the cargo ships.
- An Indian phytosanitary certificate that meets the permit conditions.
- An APEDA Certificate of Export with an aflatoxin Certificate of Analysis within 15 ppb.
- A geotagged self-declaration of container stuffing, which APEDA requires from the exporter.
- Bags marked with product name, origin, net weight, lot and importer details.
- An AITIGA or India-Malaysia CECA certificate of origin if you claim preferential duty. Halal is not required by law for peanuts, but your customers may ask for it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if a lot tests above 15 ppb aflatoxin?
It does not ship to Malaysia. APEDA will not issue the Certificate of Export for a lot above the limit. Only a lot that passes is loaded against your order, and you receive its Certificate of Analysis with the shipping documents. See Lab Testing.
Which grade and count should I order?
That depends on your use. Send the count, moisture and packing you buy now, or a reference sample, and the quote is matched to it. No grade is assumed for you.
Can I see the kernels before I commit to a container?
Yes. You can appoint SGS, Bureau Veritas or Intertek to inspect at loading if you wish.
Do you also supply peanut butter for Malaysia?
Yes, peanut butter is part of the range. The label must be in Bahasa Malaysia or English and declare peanut as an allergen.
