Pearl Barley from China
Pearl barley is barley grain that has been hulled, polished, and pearled to remove the bran layer, resulting in a smooth, oval-shaped kernel used primarily in soups and stews. Despite the processing, it remains classified under heading 10.03 as it is not further worked beyond milling. It is not for sowing or malting, so it falls under 'Other' barley.

Import Tips
• Confirm the processing level does not exceed pearling, as further processing may change the heading
• Ensure the product is not for sowing or malting
• Without a quota allocation, the over-access commitment rate applies, which is significantly higher
