Cookies (Sweet Biscuits)

Sweet biscuits and cookies are among the most widely traded baked goods in Chapter 19, and the US tariff schedule subdivides them across five 10-digit lines distinguishing frozen from non-frozen products and those containing peanuts or peanut products — a split with direct implications for FDA allergen labeling compliance and cold-chain logistics. Mexico and Canada together account for the largest share of US imports, with Italy, the United Kingdom, and Germany rounding out the top five suppliers. Products containing peanuts (lines 1905310021 and 1905310041) require particular attention to allergen declaration requirements under FDA food labeling rules. Importers should also be aware that some origins may be subject to Section 301 trade measures, depending on the country of manufacture.
