Import Tips & Compliance
ā¢ Obtain phytosanitary certificates confirming freedom from pests like filbertworm, required for all shelled hazelnut imports
ā¢ Verify shell removal method to ensure classification as 'shelled' rather than peeled; residual skin keeps it in 0802.22
ā¢ Check for fumigation treatments; residues may trigger FDA prior notice or additional USDA inspections
