Dried Minced Garlic Flakes from Germany
Dried minced garlic flakes are produced by slicing, drying, and mincing fresh garlic bulbs, resulting in small irregular pieces suitable for culinary use. They fall under HTS 0712.90.4040 as dried garlic that is broken or in powder form but not further prepared with additives like oil or salt. This classification applies to whole, cut, sliced, broken, or powdered dried garlic unfit for immediate consumption without rehydration.

Import Tips
• Verify the garlic is solely dried without oils, salts, or seasonings to avoid reclassification under prepared food headings like 2103
• Provide certificates of origin and phytosanitary certificates to comply with USDA import regulations for dried vegetables
• Ensure accurate labeling of moisture content (typically under 10%) to confirm it's not provisionally preserved under heading 0711
