HS v2022 Code: 0802

About nuts (excluding coconuts, brazils and cashew nuts); fresh or dried, whether or not shelled or peeled

HS code 0802 covers a diverse range of nuts, excluding coconuts, Brazils, and cashew nuts. These nuts are an important global commodity, with widespread use in food, confectionery, and industrial applications. The trade in these nuts plays a significant role in the agricultural and food processing sectors, contributing to the livelihoods of producers and the broader economy.

Production process

The production of nuts under HS code 0802 typically involves harvesting, drying, shelling, and processing. Nuts are often grown in orchards or plantations, with specific cultivation techniques depending on the nut variety. Post-harvest, the nuts may be dried to reduce moisture content, and then shelled to remove the outer husk. Further processing, such as roasting or flavoring, may be undertaken to prepare the nuts for consumption or industrial use.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of nuts under HS code 0802 include land, suitable climate and soil conditions, agricultural machinery for cultivation and harvesting, and labor for various stages of the production process. Depending on the nut variety, specific inputs such as irrigation systems, fertilizers, and pest control measures may also be necessary.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the industry covered by HS code 0802 are the various types of nuts, such as almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, and pistachios, among others. These nuts are widely used in the food and confectionery industries, as well as in the production of oils, flours, and other industrial products. The outputs of this industry may be further processed or consumed directly, and are often traded internationally under related HS codes, such as 0801 Coconuts, Brazil nuts and cashew nuts, fresh or dried, whether or not shelled or peeled.
