Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If derived from acorns, horse-chestnuts, or marc
Chapter 23 heading 2308 covers residues from specific non-oilseed sources, not applicable to hemp.
If of sunflower seeds
Similar oilcake but from sunflower seeds shifts to 2306.90.40; hemp specificity keeps it in .01.30.
If containing milk or dairy derivatives
Dog/cat feed with dairy limits apply under 2309.10, but pure hemp cake stays in 2306.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include pelletizing process specs in entry docs to confirm it remains 'other solid residues' without additives
• Label clearly as 'hemp seed oilcake pellets' and test for contaminants to meet APHIS import standards
• Avoid common pitfall of classifying as finished feed if no binders or flavors added

Hemp Seed Oilcake Meal
Hemp seed oilcake meal is the solid residue left after extracting hemp seed oil through mechanical pressing or solvent extraction. It is typically ground into a coarse meal form and used as a high-protein animal feed supplement. This product falls under HTS 2306.90.01.30 as it is specifically the oilcake from hemp seeds, distinct from residues of other oilseeds.
Ground Hemp Seed Press Cake
Ground hemp seed press cake is the defatted solid byproduct from cold-pressing hemp seeds for oil, finely milled for uniform feed blending. It provides essential amino acids for poultry and swine diets. This qualifies for HTS 2306.90.01.30 as ground residues from hemp seed oil extraction.
Hemp Seed Expeller Meal
Hemp seed expeller meal results from high-pressure screw-press extraction of oil from hemp seeds, producing a flaky, nutrient-dense meal for organic animal feeds. It retains natural flavors beneficial for monogastric animals. Falls under HTS 2306.90.01.30 as 'other' solid residues specifically of hemp seeds.
Organic Hemp Oilcake Pellets
Organic hemp oilcake pellets are made from certified organic hemp seeds post-oil extraction, pelletized without synthetic binders for sustainable farming feeds. High in digestible protein for dairy cattle. Classified in HTS 2306.90.01.30 as pelleted residues of hemp seeds.
Hemp Seed Solvent Extracted Cake
Hemp seed solvent extracted cake is the desolventized solid left after hexane or similar solvent removes oil from hemp seeds, crumbled for feed use. It offers balanced fiber-protein ratio. HTS 2306.90.01.30 covers this as 'other' form of hemp seed residues.
Fine Ground Hemp Feed Residue
Fine ground hemp feed residue is ultra-milled oilcake from hemp seeds, ideal for aquaculture and pet food formulations due to its powdery texture. Provides omega fatty acid traces. Under HTS 2306.90.01.30 for ground hemp seed extraction solids.
