Honey Roasted Peanut Butter from United States
Honey roasted peanut butter is a creamy spread made from ground peanuts that have been roasted with a light honey coating. The minor addition of honey for sweetening does not alter its fundamental character as a peanut paste, and it is classified under tariff item 2008.11.10 as peanut butter. It is packaged in retail squeeze packs for direct consumer use.

Import Tips
• Ensure the honey content does not exceed 3% by weight, as higher amounts may reclassify the product under other headings
• Declare the product as 'peanut butter' with the correct Brix value if applicable, and keep supplier documentation showing the roasting and honey addition process
• Verify whether a tariff rate quota (TRQ) applies to your import volume, as imports without a quota allocation pay the higher over access commitment rate
