Bringing present to a culture interview meeting in Germany?

No, bringing a present to a job interview when you are the applicant would be seen as extremely weird in Germany. Don’t do that.

If your wife insists, take them with you and eat them yourself.

But when you got the job and it’s time for your first day, then bringing some sweets for your new co-workers will certainly be seen as a nice gesture. Although it will not be expected from you.

In general, you don’t give gifts to people who are above you in the company hierarchy. Gifts are given to people below you or to people you consider your peers.

importing nuts from Iran into Germany is going to be almost certainly illegal as it falls under agricultural products and importing those into the EU from outside the EU without a license is heavily restricted.

If it’s an informal meeting with colleagues, bringing some snacks is probably welcomed.
If it’s like a job interview or sales meeting, it might be seen as an attempt at bribery and have quite the opposite effect from what you intent.
