High Erucic Acid Canola Seeds from China

These are canola seeds (Brassica napus) with an erucic acid content exceeding 2% by weight, classified under HTS 1205.90.00.90 as 'other' rape or colza seeds not qualifying as low erucic acid variety. They are typically used for industrial oil extraction rather than food-grade canola oil production.

Import Tips

Verify erucic acid content via lab testing to confirm not low erucic (under 2%) and avoid misclassification to 1205.10

Provide certificates of analysis showing glucosinolate levels and oil composition for customs clearance

Check for broken seeds; ensure documentation reflects whether broken or whole to prevent reclassification
