Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If no oil extraction occurred
Undenatured soybeans without extraction remain in Chapter 12 as raw seeds.
If when ground into full-fat soymeal for retail feed sale
Mixed or prepared feeds classified by principal function in 2309.
If oil content exceeds residue threshold
Primarily oil products classified in Chapter 15, not extraction residues.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Higher oil content increases flash point risk; requires proper ventilation certification for containers
• Organic certification documentation essential if labeled as organic feed ingredient
• Fat content analysis prevents reclassification as crude soybean oil under Chapter 15

Soybean Oilcake Meal (Fine Ground)
Finely ground soybean oilcake resulting from the mechanical or solvent extraction of soybean oil, used primarily as a high-protein animal feed ingredient. Classified under HTS 2304.00.00 as it is a solid residue from soybean oil extraction, whether ground or pelleted. Typically contains 44-48% crude protein.
Soybean Expeller Cake (Pelleted)
Pelleted soybean expeller cake produced through mechanical pressing of soybeans to extract oil, retaining higher oil content (6-8%) than solvent-extracted meal. Falls under HTS 2304.00.00 as solid residues from soybean oil extraction in pellet form. Popular in dairy and beef cattle rations.
Dehulled Soybean Meal 48% Protein
High-protein (48% min) soybean meal from dehulled, solvent-extracted soybeans, with hulls removed for improved digestibility. HTS 2304.00.00 covers all forms of soybean oil extraction residues, including dehulled varieties. Standard ingredient in swine and poultry feeds.
Soybean Extraction Pellets (44% Protein)
Standard 44% protein soybean pellets from solvent extraction, ground or pelleted post-extraction for easy handling. Classified in HTS 2304.00.00 explicitly covering pelleted residues from soybean oil production. Widely used in layer hen and broiler starter feeds.
