That is 6% of all EU notifications on products from Brazil and 1% of all notifications on nuts, nut products and seeds from any origin; Brazil ranks 17 of 96 origins for this category. 5 in the 365 days to 8 November 2026, against 9 in the 365 days before, down 44%.

Most reported: aflatoxins (28), haloxyfop (7) and chlorpyrifos (5). 61% were border rejections (57% for nuts, nut products and seeds from all origins) and 61% had a serious risk decision. The products named most often were groundnuts (41), Brazil nuts (1) and nuts or seeds (1).

Counts start on 1 January 2020 and run to 8 November 2026, the day the list was last read. A notification that names two countries of origin counts for each. Findings come from our word list matched against the EU subject line, which is never shown; 96% of all notifications match it, the rest count as other finding. Each reference links to the official record on RASFF Window. How this works.
