Last updated: August 2026 dataHeading 151090 captures refined olive pomace oil, blends of pomace oil with virgin olive oil (heading 1509), and other olive-derived oils not elsewhere classified — including an explicit inedible residue-oil line (1510901000) for industrial applications. Spain leads US imports under this heading, with Turkey and Italy also significant sources. The container-size split between retail (under 18 kg, line 1510902000) and bulk (18 kg and over, line 1510909000) mirrors the structure used across the olive oil chapter. Importers blending pomace oil with virgin olive oil for retail sale must ensure labeling accurately reflects the blend composition, as FDA scrutinizes 'olive oil' label claims on products containing pomace-derived fractions. Admissibility is complex; consult a licensed customs broker or FDA before importing.

Line 1510901000 covers olive-residue oil and blends that are explicitly inedible — typically destined for industrial uses such as soap manufacturing, lubricants, or fuel. To support this classification, importers should provide a commercial invoice and technical data sheet clearly stating the inedible designation and intended industrial end-use. Misclassifying an edible product under this line, or vice versa, can trigger both CBP penalty exposure and FDA admissibility issues.
If the ratio of pomace oil to virgin olive oil changes between shipments, the correct tariff line may shift — particularly between 151090 (pomace-dominant or blended) and 150990 (refined virgin-dominant). CBP may request blend composition certificates to verify classification. Importers with variable-formula products should consider obtaining a binding ruling from CBP to lock in the correct classification and avoid inconsistent entry treatment across shipments.
