The shelling process typically occurs in the country of origin, so value-added labor costs and food safety controls at the processing facility are key sourcing considerations.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes — shelled Brazil nuts (080122) and in-shell Brazil nuts (080121) are classified under separate HS6 headings, and their applicable duty rates differ. Importers should confirm the exact physical state of the product at time of export to ensure correct classification and avoid potential duty underpayment or overpayment.
FDA expects importers to maintain foreign supplier verification program (FSVP) records, including hazard analysis and supplier verification activities. For Brazil nuts specifically, aflatoxin test certificates from accredited laboratories are strongly advisable given the commodity's known mycotoxin risk. Consult a licensed customs broker or FSVP specialist for current compliance obligations.
