Overview
This HTS category, 2308.00.93.00, specifically covers screenings, scalpings, chaff, or scourings derived from flaxseed (linseed). These materials, which are byproducts of flaxseed processing, are classified here regardless of whether they have been ground. Their primary intended use is as an ingredient in animal feed, aligning with the broader scope of Chapter 23 which deals with residues and waste from the food industries for animal feeding.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings, 2308.00.10.00 covers acorns and horse-chestnuts, which are distinct plant materials used for animal feed. Similarly, 2308.00.95.00 pertains specifically to dehydrated marigolds. The current subcategory, 2308.00.93.00, is therefore narrowly defined to include only the flaxseed-derived byproducts, differentiating it from other vegetable materials and waste not elsewhere specified or included within the broader heading of 2308.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification under 2308.00.93.00 is determined by the material's origin (flaxseed) and its nature as a processing residue, intended for animal feed. The physical state (ground or not ground) does not alter classification within this specific code.
