Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "15" refer to animal or vegetable oils and their products; fatty or oil substances; edible waste animal or vegetable oils and fats; animal feed.

The specific classification reasons are as follows:

• Broad scope: The 15 category covers various types of oils and fats from both animal and plant sources, as well as various products obtained after processing these oils and fats.
• Edible and non-edible: Includes oils and fats that can be directly consumed (such as edible vegetable oils, animal oils), as well as those used for industrial purposes or animal feed.
• Decomposition products: Includes substances obtained from the decomposition of oils and fats, such as fatty acids and glycerol.
• Waste oil: Includes edible waste animal or vegetable oils and fats, which can be reused after processing.

Subcategories:

• 1501: Animal and vegetable oils and their products (such as soybean oil, peanut oil, palm oil, olive oil, butter, ghee, etc.)
• 1502: Decomposition products of fats or oils (such as fatty acids, glycerol, etc.)
• 1503: Feed made from animal or vegetable oils, fats and their decomposition products

• 1510: Feed made from animal or vegetable oils, fats and their decomposition products (other)

Summary:

If your product is an oil, fat, or related product from animal or plant sources, it is likely to be classified under the 15 category. For a more accurate determination of the HS code, you need to provide more detailed product information, such as the specific composition, use, and processing method.

Hope the above explanation is helpful to you!
