Import Tips
• Verify that the mixture contains exclusively nuts (no fruits or other ingredients) to qualify under 0813.50.00.40; include detailed ingredient lists in documentation
• Obtain certificates of origin and aflatoxin test results, as nuts are prone to contamination checks at customs
• Label packages with country of origin and net weight to avoid misclassification as retail sets or repackaged goods
