Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 230630 when importing or exporting oil-cake and solid residues from sunflower seed oil extraction. For instance, if you're shipping a pallet of sunflower seed meal used as animal feed, this is the correct code.

This code specifically covers the by-products of sunflower seed oil extraction, distinguishing it from other oil-cakes like those from soybeans or peanuts, which fall under different HS codes. If you deal with residues from other seeds, you’ll need to refer to their respective classifications.

When considering HS-6 230630, note that it applies to both ground and unground forms of sunflower seed oil-cake. This can include products sold in bulk or packaged in bags for animal feed, highlighting its versatility in trade.

If you’re unsure whether your product fits this classification, compare it with HS-6 230610, which covers oil-cake from other sources, like soybeans. The specific extraction process and source seed are key in determining the right HS code.
