Sunflower Oil Mid-Fraction from United States
Sunflower oil mid-fraction is obtained through physical fractionation of sunflower-seed oil, yielding a semi-solid fraction suitable for margarines and shortenings. Since fractionation is a physical process and the oil is not chemically modified, it falls under tariff item 1512.19.11 when imported for processing.

Import Tips

• Confirm the mid-fraction is intended for further processing, such as margarine production
• Maintain detailed production records to substantiate the classification if audited by the CBSA
