0714.90.51.00 - In the form of pellets 🖩

This HTS category, 0714.90.51.00, specifically covers other roots and tubers, as well as their starchy pith, that have been processed into pellets. This includes a wide range of starchy plant matter, such as cassava, arrowroot, salep, Jerusalem artichokes, and sweet potatoes, which have undergone a physical transformation to form compact, granular masses. The key characteristic is the pelletized form, distinguishing them from fresh, chilled, frozen, dried, or simply sliced forms of these same root and tuber products.

Within the broader "Other" heading at this level, this particular subcategory is differentiated by its singular focus on the pelletized presentation of these starchy roots and tubers. While other subcategories at this same level might cover different forms or specific types of "other" starchy roots and tubers, the defining criterion here is the manufactured pellet form, implying a processed state ready for further use in food production or other industrial applications.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 0714.90.51.00 hinges solely on identifying the goods as other starchy roots and tubers, or sago pith, that have been processed into pellet form. This excludes any other form of these products, such as powders, flours, or dried slices not agglomerated into pellets.
