Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If solvent-extracted
Standard solvent-extracted crude uses the primary code, while cold-pressed is 'other' due to extraction method.
If further processed into fractions
Separated fractions like oleins from cold-pressed oil move to heading 1515 for other fixed vegetable fat fractions.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Document cold-pressing method and temperature logs to prove it hasn't undergone refining processes
• Test for residual solvent levels (should be zero) to confirm mechanical extraction and crude status
• Use temperature-controlled shipping to preserve quality, as degradation could lead to reclassification
