Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 230110 when importing or exporting flours, meals, and pellets made from meat or meat offal that are not suitable for human consumption. For example, this code applies to animal feed products derived from beef or poultry by-products.
This code specifically covers products like meat meal and greaves, which are often used in pet food or livestock feed. In contrast, HS-6 230120 includes fish meal, which is derived from fish waste and is also unfit for human consumption but serves a different market.
When classifying your product, ensure it is genuinely unfit for human consumption; otherwise, it may fall under a different HS code. Products like meat and bone meal are common examples that fit this classification.
If you're dealing with by-products from meat processing, remember that the distinction between this code and others, such as those for human food products, is crucial for compliance and accurate duty assessment.
