Oil-cake and oil-cake meal, undecortica-ted, solvent extracted (defatted) variety
Cotton seed oil-cake, undecorticated, solvent extracted (defatted)
HSN 2306 10 40 (cotton seed oil-cake and oil-cake meal, undecorticated, solvent extracted, defatted variety) is not covered by a Bureau of Indian Standards Quality Control Order and carries no Partner Government Agency clearance requirement at the tariff-line level. Import follows the standard customs procedure: Importer-Exporter Code (IEC), bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other solid residues and prepared animal feeds within Chapter 23 may attract distinct compliance depending on the source oilseed, processing method, or intended end use.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line does not extend to the broader heading: cotton seed oil-cakes processed by different methods — or oil-cakes derived from other oilseeds within Chapter 23 — are separately classified and may carry their own regulatory requirements. Re-classification on customs examination triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the relevant clearance. Verify the precise processing method, decoration status, and intended use against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance at this line.
