In general, Vietnamese cashew suppliers require MOQs in the range of 1 metric ton for kernels. Lead time is usually 7-14 days for kernel processing and shipment preparation. Some suppliers may quote 15-20 working days for full containers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For your information<\/span>, cashew grade <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">means the kernel size, count per weight, broken percentage, color, and quality standard.

Incoterms for cashew exports from Vietnam are most commonly FOB Ho Chi Minh City or CIF major US ports.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Quality is also something to monitor closely. With Vietnam\u2019s tropical climate and long harvest season, grades are generally consistent, but moisture content can cause mold during humid months.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should also look carefully into lead time because Vietnamese holidays like T\u1ebft (Lunar New Year) can delay shipments by 1-2 weeks. Packaging and labeling requirements should be clearly specified. Do insist on clear written contracts and request bilingual versions (English-Vietnamese) to avoid misinterpretation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Classify_Cashews_Under_Correct_HS_Codes\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3.

Whole shelled kernels and broken cashew kernels often come in the whole cashew kernels. Roasted and seasoned cashews, on the other hand, are treated as prepared or preserved products. In-shell classification is rarely seen in Vietnamese cashews.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Register_Your_Facility_with_FDA\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4.

According to the FDA Food Facility Registration Rule, any shipment of cashews entering the US must be tied to an FDA-registered facility and importer. In other words, both the Vietnamese exporter\u2019s facility and the US importer have to register with the FDA before shipments can be cleared.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To register, you go to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.access.fda.gov\/\"><b>FDA Industry Systems portal<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and select the Food Facility Registration Module (FFRM) to register the foreign facility.
