Linseed Oilcake Pellets
Pelletized solid residue obtained from the solvent extraction of linseed oil from flax seeds, used primarily as a high-protein feed supplement for livestock. Classified under HTS 2306.20.00.00 as oilcake resulting from linseed oil extraction, ground and formed into uniform pellets for easy handling and mixing in animal rations.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If mixed with other ingredients or additives
Blended or compounded animal feeds fall under preparations of Chapter 23, heading 2309, rather than pure oilcake.
If unprocessed or whole linseeds
Raw linseeds are classified as seeds of Chapter 12, not processed residues from oil extraction.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify extraction process documentation to confirm it's from vegetable oil extraction, not microbial fats which may classify differently
• Ensure product is free from solvent residues; provide certificates of analysis to avoid FDA feed safety holds
• Check for moisture content limits (typically under 12%) to prevent mold during transit
