Burdock root extract granules are a concentrated, granulated form of the root of Arctium lappa, commonly used in herbal teas, dietary supplements, and traditional remedies.

Import Tips
• Ensure the granules are not presented in measured doses or packaged for retail sale as medicaments, which would shift classification to Chapter 30
• Have documentation showing the extract is a raw botanical product, not a processed food or supplement, to support the 1404.90.00 classification
• Verify whether the granules contain any added binders or excipients, as those may affect tariff classification
