Fresh In-Shell Brazil Nuts
Fresh Brazil nuts harvested from the Bertholletia excelsa tree, still encased in their hard, woody shells. These nuts are typically air-dried after harvest but retain high moisture content, making them unsuitable for long-term storage without further processing. Classified under HTS 0801.21.00.00 as fresh or dried Brazil nuts in shell.
Dried In-Shell Brazil Nuts
Brazil nuts that have been naturally or artificially dried while still in their intact shells to reduce moisture content for storage and transport. They require shelling before consumption and are imported primarily from Amazonian regions. HTS 0801.21.00.00 covers both fresh and dried forms when in shell.
Amazonian In-Shell Brazil Nuts
Premium Brazil nuts sourced from wild Amazon forests, delivered in their natural three-sided hard shells. These are typically sun-dried and exported in bulk jute bags for processing. Under HTS 0801.21.00.00 as unshelled Brazil nuts, fresh or dried.
Bulk In-Shell Brazil Nuts for Processing
Large quantities of in-shell Brazil nuts shipped in bulk for industrial shelling and packaging. These dried nuts maintain their shells to protect the kernel during long-distance transport from South America. HTS 0801.21.00.00 applies to in-shell Brazil nuts regardless of end use.
