HTS CHAPTER

Chapter 12: Oil Seeds and Oleaginous Fruits

HTS Chapter 12 encompasses a range of oil seeds and oleaginous fruits, as well as miscellaneous grains that play a vital role in various industries. This chapter includes categories such as soybeans, sunflower seeds, peanuts, and canola seeds, which are essential for producing vegetable oils and animal feed. Common example products include soybeans used in food and feed applications, sunflower seeds for oil extraction, and peanuts as a snack and ingredient in cooking. Industries such as food manufacturing, animal agriculture, and biofuel production frequently import these goods. When navigating imports under this chapter, businesses should be aware of regulatory considerations, including potential tariff classifications, phytosanitary requirements, and country-of-origin labeling. Compliance with these regulations is crucial to avoid delays and ensure smooth customs clearance. Understanding HTS Chapter 12 is essential for importers looking to optimize their supply chains and capitalize on the growing demand for oil seeds and oleaginous fruits in the global market.
