Flaked Sorghum Grains from Japan
Flaked sorghum grains are made by steaming and rolling sorghum kernels into flakes, a form of otherwise worked cereal grain. They are classified under tariff item 1104.19.90 as flaked grains of other cereals, since sorghum is not wheat or barley and the product is not milled into flour or meal.

Import Tips
• Confirm the sorghum flakes are not ground into meal or flour, which would fall under heading 11.03
• Keep records of the processing method (steaming and rolling) to support classification
• Check that the starch content exceeds 45% by weight on a dry basis to stay within Chapter 11
