Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 150190 when importing or exporting poultry fat, which includes rendered fat from chickens and turkeys. For example, a shipment of packaged chicken fat for food production falls under this code.
This code specifically applies to poultry fat that is not classified under HS-6 0209 (which covers meat and edible offal) or HS-6 1503 (which includes fats from other animals). If you're dealing with fat from ducks or geese, you would need to look at different classifications.
Poultry fat can be used in various applications, including cooking oils, margarine, and processed foods. It’s important to differentiate it from other animal fats, such as lard from pigs, which is classified under a different heading.
If you are unsure whether your product qualifies as poultry fat under this code, consider the source and processing method. For instance, fat derived from poultry by-products is included, while any mixed animal fat would not qualify.
