Last updated: August 2026 dataRefined coconut oil — processed from copra (dried coconut meat) to remove free fatty acids, moisture, and impurities — is a widely used fat in food manufacturing, personal care, and oleochemical applications, and the Philippines and Indonesia together account for the dominant share of US supply. The US schedule distinguishes certified organic refined coconut oil (1513190030) from conventional product (1513190090), reflecting strong retail and natural-food-sector demand for organic-certified oil. FDA food-safety rules apply to food-grade imports, and importers should verify that foreign refineries meet FSMA supplier verification standards.

RBD (refined, bleached, deodorized) coconut oil — the product covered by HS 151319 — is processed from copra and has a neutral flavor and higher smoke point, making it suitable for industrial food use. Virgin coconut oil is cold-pressed from fresh coconut meat without refining and is classified elsewhere in the HTS. Importers should confirm the processing method with the supplier to ensure correct classification between these headings.
Both countries are exposed to the same tropical weather patterns — typhoons, El Niño drought cycles — that affect coconut yields across Southeast Asia simultaneously. A poor harvest season can tighten supply and lift prices across both origins at once, leaving buyers with limited spot-market alternatives. Importers managing this risk often maintain safety stock or diversify to Sri Lanka or Vietnam, which appear as secondary suppliers under this heading.
