“Vegetable oil” is a trade description rather than a single botanical product. It is either one refined seed oil sold under a general name, or a blend of two or more refined oils chosen for a neutral taste and a steady price. Because the composition decides how the oil behaves in a kitchen and how it must be labelled, we quote vegetable oil only against a stated composition: either the single oil it is made from, or the oils in the blend and their proportions.

Grades and how they are used
Single refined oil sold as vegetable oil
One named oil — sunflower, canola, soybean or palm olein, for example — refined, bleached and deodorised, then sold under a general name.
Character: Clear, pale yellow, with little smell or taste of its own.
- Everyday frying and sautéing
- Baking, where a neutral taste is wanted
- Dressings and marinades as a carrier
Declared blend
Two or more refined oils blended to a specification. The blend is named on the label because composition affects both cooking behaviour and labelling.
Character: Clear and pale; colour and behaviour depend on the oils used.
- Volume frying in catering and food manufacturing
- General kitchen use where a consistent price matters
Culinary applications
- Deep and shallow frying
- Sautéing and stir-frying
- Baking and pastry work
- Dressings, mayonnaise and sauces
- Greasing tins and equipment
Cooking with heat
Refined oils are the usual choice for frying because refining removes the free fatty acids and fine particles that make an oil break down sooner. How much heat a particular lot tolerates depends on the oils used, how thoroughly they were refined and how often the oil is reused, so the figure that matters is the one on the specification for the lot supplied, not a general figure for “vegetable oil”.
Smoke point is not published here as a single figure. It varies with refinement, free fatty acid content, filtration and how often an oil has been used, so the figure that matters is the one on the specification for the lot supplied.

On the standard: Where “vegetable oil” is a blend, the oils it contains and their proportions are agreed before shipment and declared on the label, because national labelling rules differ.
HS note: A single named oil is classified under its own heading instead (for example 1512.19 for refined sunflower oil). Confirm the tariff line with your customs broker.
The 6-digit HS subheading is internationally harmonised; confirm the full national tariff line with your customs broker. Container loading is calculated once carton dimensions, gross weights, the pallet pattern and the applicable payload limit are known — it is not estimated from the pack size alone.
Points to note when ordering
- The oils in a blend must be declared. Several markets do not allow the unqualified term “vegetable oil” on a retail label.
