Last updated: April 2026 data

Crude palm oil is a globally traded commodity used as a feedstock for edible oil refining, oleochemicals, and biodiesel, and all US imports enter under a single tariff line (1511100000). Ghana leads US import supply under this heading, with Malaysia and Ecuador also among top sources — a supplier mix that reflects both West African and Southeast Asian production. Importers should be aware that palm oil supply chains have drawn scrutiny from US Customs and Border Protection under forced-labor provisions of the Tariff Act, and due-diligence documentation on labor practices at origin is increasingly expected. FDA Prior Notice is required for shipments entering food-manufacturing channels.

Frequently Asked Questions

What forced-labor compliance steps should importers of crude palm oil take before shipment?

CBP has issued Withhold Release Orders related to palm oil from certain producers. Importers should conduct supply-chain due diligence, obtain documentation from suppliers certifying compliance with labor standards, and review CBP's current WRO list before contracting. Engaging a licensed customs broker with experience in forced-labor compliance is strongly advisable.

How does crude palm oil differ from refined palm oil for classification and end-use purposes?

Crude palm oil (1511100000) retains its natural carotenoids and free fatty acids and is typically destined for further refining before food or industrial use. Refined palm oil (HTS 151190) has been processed to remove color, odor, and impurities and is ready for direct incorporation into food products or oleochemical manufacturing. The distinction determines both the applicable tariff line and the downstream processing requirements.
