Last updated: August 2026 dataTurkey dominates global hazelnut supply and is consistently the leading source of shelled hazelnuts entering the US market, with Canada and Germany also appearing among top suppliers. Shelled filberts — the trade name used interchangeably with hazelnuts — are a critical input for confectionery manufacturers, chocolate producers, and specialty food processors. Because the shell has been removed prior to export, moisture content, aflatoxin levels, and foreign-material tolerances are key quality checkpoints that FDA monitors at entry. Importers should confirm that lots meet FDA's action levels for mycotoxins, as hazelnut shipments are subject to FDA admissibility review.

Turkey accounts for the vast majority of global hazelnut production due to its ideal Black Sea climate and long-established orchard infrastructure. This concentration means US importers are heavily exposed to Turkish crop-year variability, making harvest timing and aflatoxin test results from that origin a primary supply-chain risk factor.
FDA requires prior notice of arrival for all food shipments. Shelled hazelnuts are subject to FDA admissibility review, and importers should be prepared to provide certificates of analysis demonstrating compliance with US action levels for aflatoxin and other mycotoxins. Shipments from certain origins may be subject to FDA import alerts. Consult a licensed customs broker or FDA-registered agent for current requirements.
