U.S. imports of rape/colza seed oilcake & solid residues (other) (HS 230649) totaled $566K in April 2026, traded with 1 country.
Last updated: April 2026 dataRape or colza seed oilcake that does not meet the low-erucic acid specification — or for which erucic acid content is unverified — falls under HTS 2306490000, the NESOI residual line for rapeseed crushing byproducts. Canada leads US import supply for this category as well, with India, Germany, Spain, and Indonesia rounding out the supplier base, reflecting diverse crushing industries across multiple continents. The key classification risk for importers is misassignment between this line and the low-erucic acid subheading (230641); erucic acid documentation is essential at entry. High-erucic acid rapeseed meal has distinct industrial and feed applications compared to canola meal, and buyers should confirm end-use suitability.

The dividing line is erucic acid content of the source seed. If a shipment lacks laboratory documentation confirming low erucic acid levels, CBP may default to the NESOI line (2306490000). Conversely, goods incorrectly entered under the NESOI line when they qualify as low-erucic acid may result in overpayment of duties. A licensed customs broker and a certified lab analysis are the standard tools for managing this risk.
As of current schedules, rape/colza oilcake is not broadly subject to Section 301 or antidumping orders, but importers sourcing from China should verify current Section 301 list applicability with a customs broker, as product-level coverage can change. No specific antidumping orders are known to target this product category at this time.
