Chapter 23: Residues from food industries

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 230620 when importing or exporting oil-cake and other solid residues from linseed oil extraction. For example, if you have a shipment of linseed oil-cake pellets intended for animal feed, this is the correct code.

This code specifically covers residues from linseed oil extraction, distinguishing it from similar products like oil-cake from soybean or sunflower seeds. If you're dealing with oil-cake from those sources, you would use HS-6 2304 or HS-6 2305 instead.

The 230620 classification includes both ground and unground forms of linseed oil-cake, whether in bulk or packaged. It’s essential to note the form of the product when declaring it to customs.

If you're unsure about the classification of your product, consider the end use. Linseed oil-cake is often used as animal feed or in organic fertilizers, which can influence how you present your shipment.
