Canola Meal Pellets from China
Canola meal pellets are the solid residue remaining after extracting oil from low erucic acid rapeseed (canola), ground and compressed into uniform pellets for easy handling in animal feed. This product falls under tariff item 2306.49.00 as an 'other' residue of rape or colza seeds, since the subheading note for low erucic acid seeds (2306.41) does not apply to pelletized forms unless specifically classified there.

Import Tips
• Ensure the pellets meet the definition in Section Note 1 (agglomerated by compression or binder ≤3% by weight) to avoid reclassification
• Provide a Certificate of Analysis showing oil content and erucic acid levels to confirm the 'other' classification
• Verify if the product requires a feed registration permit from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) before import
