Virginia Peanuts Oil Stock from Canada
Large-seeded Virginia-type shelled peanuts, unbroken or broken, imported exclusively for oil milling operations. Classified under HTS 1202.42.90.20 due to their primary use as oil stock, with oil content typically 48-52% making them ideal for extraction. Not suitable for retail as they lack the size uniformity of confectionery peanuts.

Import Tips
• Include commercial invoices specifying 'for oil extraction only' and buyer contracts demonstrating oil mill end-use
• Conduct aflatoxin testing as oil stock peanuts often face stricter residue limits than food peanuts
• Avoid commingling with food-grade peanuts during storage to prevent CBP reclassification
