Last updated: July 2026 dataShelled Brazil nuts are classified under a single US tariff line (0801220000) and sourced almost exclusively from South American rainforest regions, with Bolivia and Peru leading supply ahead of Brazil itself — a reflection of wild-harvest geography rather than cultivated production. Because Brazil nuts are harvested from wild trees in Amazonian ecosystems, supply volumes are sensitive to seasonal rainfall and forest-access conditions, creating year-to-year variability that importers should factor into procurement planning. Aflatoxin contamination is a recurring food-safety concern for this commodity, and FDA may detain shipments that exceed tolerance thresholds.

Brazil nuts grow wild across the Amazon basin, and Bolivia's harvesting regions are among the most productive and accessible for export. Bolivian exporters have also developed strong processing and certification infrastructure, enabling consistent supply of shelled product that meets US food-safety standards.
Aflatoxin contamination is the primary food-safety concern. FDA monitors Brazil nut imports for aflatoxin levels, and shipments found to exceed established tolerances may be detained or refused entry. Importers should request aflatoxin test certificates from suppliers and maintain documentation to facilitate FDA review.
