Unmodified potato starch selected for high viscosity, used as an instant thickener in gravies and sauces. It retains the natural starch character and is not pre-gelatinized, so it stays in Chapter 11.

Duty Rate — United States → Canada

10.5%

Import Tips

• Confirm the product is not pre-gelatinized; if it is, it falls under Chapter 19

• Provide technical data on viscosity and modification status to CBSA

• Check if the starch is in retail packages under 1 kg, as packaging weight may affect duty calculation
