Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the product is clearly labelled as a blend, not pure olive oil, to avoid classification under heading 15.09
• Provide a certificate of analysis showing the soybean oil content exceeds 5% by weight, as this distinguishes it from olive oil of heading 15.09
• Check if the olive oil component is virgin or refined, as this may affect the product's description but not the classification under 1517.90.99
