Almond Shell Compressed Charcoal from China
Compressed charcoal blocks made from almond shells, used primarily in blacksmith forges and metalworking applications. The shells are carbonized and then agglomerated by compression, which aligns with the tariff item for shell or nut charcoal that is not specifically for activated carbon production.

Import Tips
• Ensure the charcoal is not intended for use in manufacturing activated carbon, as that would fall under a different tariff item
• Provide documentation on the carbonization and compression process to support classification
• Verify that the product meets Canadian packaging and labeling requirements for charcoal products
