U.S. exports of edible fat & oil mixtures and preparations (nesoi) (HS 151790) totaled $33.7M in July 2026.
Importers of Edible Fat & Oil Mixtures and Preparations (NESOI) paid $2.0M in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 14% on $14.0M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataA structurally complex heading, 151790 encompasses artificial mixtures and preparations of edible animal and vegetable fats and oils not elsewhere specified — including salad and cooking oils, baking and frying fats, wholly hydrogenated single-species oils such as soybean (1517904035) and cottonseed (1517904055), and dairy-containing preparations subject to tariff-rate-quota treatment under General Note 15 and Chapter 4 additional US notes (lines 1517904500, 1517905000, 1517906000). The soybean oil content threshold — whether a mixture contains 5% or more versus less than 5% soybean oil — is a primary classification driver across multiple 10-digit lines. Canada leads supply, followed by Malaysia and Mexico, reflecting both integrated North American trade and Southeast Asian palm-based fat processing. FDA oversight applies to all edible preparations entering the US food supply.

The US tariff schedule uses a 5% soybean oil content threshold as a primary breakpoint: mixtures containing 5% or more soybean oil are classified in one set of 10-digit lines (e.g., 1517901020–1517901080), while those with less than 5% fall in a parallel set (e.g., 1517902020–1517902080). Misidentifying the soybean oil percentage can result in classification under the wrong line, potentially affecting the applicable duty rate. Importers should obtain a detailed compositional analysis from the manufacturer.
Lines 1517904500, 1517905000, and 1517906000 cover dairy-containing preparations that are subject to TRQ treatment under General Note 15 and the additional US notes to Chapter 4. Shipments of these products above the applicable quota volume face significantly higher over-quota duty rates. Importers should verify quota availability and obtain the appropriate TRQ certificate before shipment to avoid unexpected duty liability.
