HS Code 1507Soya-bean oil and its fractions; whether or not refined, but not chemically modified

What HS code 1507 covers

Heading 1507 is for soya-bean oil, which most people call soybean oil, and for its fractions. A fraction is one part of the oil, separated from the rest. The oil may be refined or not, but it must not be chemically modified. If the oil keeps its natural make-up, it stays here.

You may also see it written as HTS code 1507. The first four digits match across systems. Countries add their own extra digits for tariff classification. For a final customs classification of your cargo, check your national schedule or use the HS code classifier.

Difference between HS code 150710 and 150790

The only test is whether the oil is crude. Crude oil is raw oil that has not been fully processed. Degumming is a first cleaning step, and it does not change that. Think of it as a simple split. Raw oil sits in the first code. Oil that has moved past the crude stage sits in the second.

This is the whole answer for crude soya-bean oil hs classification and for refined oil alike. Look at how far the oil has been processed, then choose.

What is not classified under 1507

Some oils look like soybean oil but belong next door. The test is what was done to the oil, or which seed it came from. Check these headings before you settle on a code.

• Boiled, oxidised, dehydrated or otherwise chemically modified oils belong in 1518.
• Hydrogenated, inter-esterified, re-esterified or elaidinised oils fall under 1516.
• Margarine and edible mixtures of fats or oils sit in 1517.
• Other seed oils have their own headings: groundnut oil in 1508, sunflower seed, safflower and cotton-seed oil in 1512, and rape, colza or mustard oil in 1514.

Other vegetable oil headings in Chapter 15

Buyers of soybean oil often compare it with other edible oils. Palm oil has its own heading, 1511. Each heading page lists its own six-digit codes, so open the one you need from the nearby-headings list or from the Chapter 15 page. This keeps your search narrow and your code choice clear.
