Effective October 1, 2022 the Fruits and Vegetables Import Requirements (FAVIR) database has been replaced by the Agricultural Commodity Import Requirements database at https://acir.aphis.usda.gov/s/


Commodity Summary: Approved Countries
The Commodity Summary displays all the countries (or regions) from which the specified commodity may be imported. Columns displaying plant part and Port(s) of Entry are shown, as it is possible for an import to be regulated differently based upon those factors. Select a row (open) to open the Commodity Import Requirements (CIR) for that result. A flag ( Access Restricted to APHIS/CBP ) indicates information that is intended for and available to an APHIS/CBP audience only.
