Refined Coconut Oil
Refined coconut oil is derived from copra and processed to remove impurities and odor, resulting in a clear oil used primarily in cooking and baking. It falls under HTS 1513.19.00.90 as coconut (copra) oil that is refined but not chemically modified. This classification covers fractions thereof that are not chemically altered.
Virgin Coconut Oil
Virgin coconut oil is extracted from fresh coconut meat without refining or bleaching, retaining natural flavor and nutrients for use in skincare and health foods. Classified under HTS 1513.19.00.90 as unrefined coconut (copra) oil not chemically modified. It qualifies as a fraction of coconut oil in its natural state.
Cold-Pressed Coconut Oil
Cold-pressed coconut oil uses mechanical pressing without heat to preserve nutrients, used in raw food diets and cosmetics. Classified in HTS 1513.19.00.90 as unrefined coconut oil fraction not chemically modified. The mechanical extraction keeps it in this unmodified category.
Unrefined Copra Oil
Unrefined copra oil is crude oil pressed from dried coconut kernels, retaining natural impurities for soap-making bases. Classified under HTS 1513.19.00.90 as other coconut oil not chemically modified. It represents the base form before any refining.
Bleached Coconut Oil
Bleached coconut oil uses natural earth to remove color, resulting in pale oil for cosmetics, still physically refined. Classified HTS 1513.19.00.90 as non-chemically modified coconut oil. Bleaching is a permitted physical process.
Deodorized Coconut Oil
Deodorized coconut oil strips odor via steam distillation for neutral taste in processed foods. HTS 1513.19.00.90 for physically deodorized, unmodified copra oil. Counts as refining, not chemical change.
