Last updated: July 2026 dataRendered and processed inedible animal by-products — including meat meal, bone meal, blood meal, and greaves (the solid residue from fat rendering) — are classified under this single 10-digit line (2301100000) and serve primarily as high-protein ingredients in animal feed and fertilizer manufacturing. Australia and New Zealand are leading suppliers, reflecting their large livestock processing industries and established export infrastructure for rendered products. USDA APHIS regulates the importation of animal-derived meals and rendered products due to biosecurity concerns, particularly regarding transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), and may require import permits and country-of-origin health certificates. Importers should consult a licensed customs broker or APHIS regarding current admissibility requirements, as restrictions vary by species and country of origin.

APHIS regulates these products because rendered animal meals can serve as a vector for animal diseases, including transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) such as BSE. Regardless of their inedible designation, products derived from ruminant tissues are subject to APHIS import requirements, which may include import permits, foreign government health certificates, and restrictions based on the disease status of the country of origin.
Heading 230110 covers flours, meals, and pellets of meat or meat offal that are unfit for human consumption, as well as greaves. Products that are fit for human consumption (such as edible offal) classify elsewhere. The key classification criteria are: (1) the product must be derived from meat or meat offal, (2) it must be inedible, and (3) it must be in flour, meal, or pellet form or be greaves. Rendered fats and oils from the same process classify separately under Chapter 15.
