Classification of coconut oil turns on application of Chapter Notes and the Harmonized System: pure coconut oil sold as edible oil falls under Heading 1513 unless its packaging meets all requirements of Chapter Note 3 to Chapter 33 and corresponding HS explanatory notes, in which case it is classifiable under Heading 3305 as hair oil. A binding higher-court decision so holds and the matter is remitted for fresh departmental adjudication to apply that precedent and decide the other issues raised in the impugned Show Cause Notice.
