Last updated: August 2026 dataA residual catch-all for tree nuts not enumerated elsewhere in Chapter 8, this heading covers commercially significant products including pecans — split between in-shell (0802991000) and shelled (0802991500) — alongside a broad NESOI basket for other in-shell (0802998200) and shelled (0802999800) varieties. Mexico leads import supply, reflecting cross-border pecan trade from northern Mexican growing states. Correct classification within this heading turns on whether the nut is shelled or in-shell and whether it belongs to a named variety (pecans) or falls into the residual NESOI lines, making species and processing-state documentation essential.

Pecans (Carya illinoinensis) are specifically named and classified under 0802991000 (in-shell) or 0802991500 (shelled). Any nut that is not a pecan and is not covered by another named heading in Chapter 8 falls into the NESOI lines — 0802998200 for in-shell or 0802999800 for shelled. Botanical identification and a supplier declaration of species are the most reliable documentation to support the classification.
Northern Mexican states — particularly Chihuahua — are among the world's largest pecan-producing regions, and geographic proximity makes cross-border trade efficient. US processors and retailers regularly supplement domestic supply with Mexican pecans to meet volume and seasonal demand, especially during the fall harvest window when both countries' crops come to market simultaneously.
