Broken Shelled Spanish Peanuts Quota Import from Japan
Broken shelled Spanish peanuts, not roasted or cooked, described in and entered under additional U.S. note 2 provisions for tariff-rate quotas. These smaller-kernel peanuts are ideal for oil extraction or confections and fall under this HTS due to quota eligibility for shelled raw peanuts. The 'broken' state does not alter the raw classification.

Import Tips
• Include bill of lading specifying 'quota peanuts per note 2' to facilitate CBP processing
