Import Tips
• Verify that at least 95% of the product passes through a 2 mm sieve to meet Chapter 11 definition of corn meal
• Provide mill test reports confirming starch and ash content to avoid reclassification to heading 2302
• Label clearly as 'corn grits' to distinguish from finer corn flour under 1102.20
