Reading code 15180031

The first two digits (15) place this code in chapter 15 — Animal and Vegetable Fats and Oils. Heading 1518 groups the product family, and the remaining digits pin down this specific 8-digit classification. Remember: you can never invent a shorter code by truncating a longer one — only codes that exist in the official tariff are valid.

Edible oils — soybean, palm, sunflower, mustard, coconut — plus industrial fats, waxes, and their fractions. Most edible oils attract 5% GST.
