ISR · Section III
Ground-nut oil and its fractions, whether or not refined, but not chemically modified
HS 1508 — Ground-nut oil and its fractions, whether or not refined, but not chemically modified — sits in Chapter 15 (Animal, vegetable, or microbial fats and oils). Soybean oil, palm oil, olive oil, animal fats, margarine, and prepared waxes. EU importers pay MFN duty plus import VAT at the border; origin-specific trade remedies (anti-dumping, countervailing, safeguards, US Section 301) can stack on top when applicable. Classification disputes are decided by the section + chapter legal notes shown below — these are legally binding interpretation rules, not advisory text. The duty table renders live rates from authoritative tariff sources (EU TARIC, HMRC XI, USITC HTS); cross-country rows compare treatment under five tariff schedules.

EU–Uzbekistan trade pact: tariff relief and market access
The EU and Uzbekistan have signed an Enhanced Partnership and Cooperation Agreement, effective 29 April 2026. The deal establishes preferential trade terms, removes tariffs on key sectors, and creates a framework for customs cooperation.

US delays countervailing duty ruling on fatty acids from Indonesia, Malaysia
The US Department of Commerce has postponed its preliminary countervailing duty (CVD) determinations in investigations targeting certain fatty acids from Indonesia and Malaysia, extending the timeline for these anti-dumping proceedings. The delay affects importers and exporters of these products, which typically fall under HS chapters covering organic chemicals and vegetable oils. Shippers moving these goods should prepare for potential duty exposure once Commerce issues its preliminary findings and subsequent final determinations.
