Potato Starch Powder from United States
Potato starch powder is a fine powder derived from potatoes, used as a thickener in cooking and baking. It is classified under tariff item 1108.19.90 as 'other starches' because it is not a cereal starch, and it meets the starch content requirements of Chapter 11. The product is not a prepared food, so it is not excluded by Chapter 11 notes.
