Sweet Potato Starch from Mexico

High-amylose starch from sweet potatoes, used in noodles and textiles. This is a non-cereal starch, so it is not covered by the cereal-specific headings and falls under tariff item 1108.19.90 as 'Other starches', provided it meets the starch and ash content requirements of Chapter 11.

Import Tips

• Confirm the starch is derived from sweet potatoes, not potatoes, as potato starch has a separate tariff item

• Keep lab analysis showing starch content and ash levels to support classification

• Verify whether the starch is for food or industrial use, as that may affect other requirements
