US Tariffs on Edible Fruits and Nuts from Peru — 10% (2026)

Peru is a significant source of edible fruits and nuts imports into the United States, with approximately $18B in total bilateral trade.

The current tariff framework for edible fruits and nuts from Peru reflects the post-SCOTUS landscape: a 10% Section 122 tariff replaced the previously higher IEEPA rates after the Court's February 2026 ruling.

The Section 122 tariff is subject to a 150-day statutory time limit and is set to expire approximately July 24, 2026, unless Congress acts to extend or replace it. Importers should monitor legislative developments closely as this deadline approaches.

Edible Fruits and Nuts (HTS Chapter 8) carry an average MFN duty rate of 5.5% in addition to the Section 122 tariff. No additional Section 232 or Section 301 surcharges apply to most products in this category from Peru.

Peru is party to the US-Peru TPA, which may provide preferential or duty-free access for qualifying edible fruits and nuts. Importers should verify rules of origin requirements to take advantage of preferential rates.

Key products in HTS Chapter 8 imported from Peru include Bananas, Citrus fruits, Grapes, Apples, Avocados, and Almonds.
