Import Tips & Compliance

• Obtain phytosanitary certificates from exporting country to verify nuts are free from pests like the pine nut weevil

• Declare exact origin (e.g

• Italy vs

• Korea) as different pine nut species may affect quality perception and regulatory scrutiny

• Avoid misclassification by confirming shelled status; unshelled pine nuts fall under 0802.92.40
