Cold-Pressed Organic Safflower Oil from Germany
Cold-pressed organic safflower oil is extracted from certified organic safflower seeds using mechanical pressing without heat or chemical solvents, preserving natural nutrients and flavor. The cold-pressing process is a physical extraction method that does not chemically modify the oil, and the organic certification reflects agricultural practices rather than processing changes. As a safflower oil that is not refined and not chemically modified, it falls under tariff item 1512.19.29 for "Other" safflower oil and fractions thereof.

Import Tips
• - Obtain and present a valid organic certification from a CFIA-accredited body to claim organic status, which may affect market access but not tariff classification
• - Ensure the extraction method is documented as mechanical cold-pressing, as solvent extraction would change the classification
• - Verify that the oil is unrefined; if it undergoes any refining, it may still fall under this item but confirm no chemical modification occurred
