Pelletized Wheat Screenings
Pelletized wheat screenings are the byproduct residues obtained from sifting and cleaning wheat grains during milling, formed into uniform pellets for easier handling. They consist primarily of broken kernels, hulls, and dust cleared from cereal processing. Classified under HTS 2302.40.0120 as pelletized screenings (clearings) derived from other cereals.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If not in pellet form
Non-pelletized screenings from other cereals fall under the 'other' subheading excluding pellets.
If mixed with other ingredients for formulated feed
Blended or prepared animal feeds, even from cereal residues, shift to preparations of meat/meat offal or other residues.
If derived from leguminous plants like peas instead of cereals
Residues from milling leguminous plants are classified under heading 1214, not cereal-specific 2302.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify pellet form and cereal origin via milling certificates to confirm classification under 2302.40.0120
• Ensure residues are screenings/clearings, not mixed feeds, to avoid reclassification to Chapter 23 subheading 2309
• Provide documentation on moisture content (<14%) to prevent spoilage claims during inspection
