Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify country of origin labeling as pine nuts are often sourced from China or Europe; EU pine nuts may qualify for preferential tariffs
• Ensure aflatoxin testing compliance, a common issue with tree nuts; provide lab certificates to avoid CBP holds
• Declare exact preparation method (e.g
• dry roasted) to prevent reclassification to raw nuts under 0802
