Classification of Whale Oil Customs Codes
The classification of the customs code for whale oil is crucial, as it distinguishes between endangered and non-endangered species. According to the customs import-export tariff, whale oil is coded as 1504300010 (endangered marine mammals) or 1504300090 (non-endangered marine mammals). As whales are mammals, they cannot be classified as fish oil. Selecting the accurate code requires determining the whale species or consulting professionals to comply with customs regulations.
