Notice to Exporters Peanut Butter for Export to the United States (Item 5201 on Canada’s Export Control List)

In Brief The United States administers a global tariff rate quota (TRQ) for imports of peanut butter. The quota year extends from January 1 to December 31, inclusive.

Canadian exporters have access to a 14,500,000 kilogram country-specific reserve within the US import TRQ.

While there are no quantitative restrictions on the export of peanut butter to destinations other than the United States, all peanut butter exports are subject to export controls under Canada’s EIPA. Exporters wishing to export peanut butter to countries other than the United States may invoke a general export permit.
