About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS classification, 1001.91.00.00, specifically covers seed of wheat and meslin. This designation applies to grains of wheat or meslin that are intended for sowing or propagation. It includes wheat or meslin grain that meets the criteria for seed, such as being viable, genetically pure for its type, and free from disease, enabling it to germinate and produce a new crop.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 1001.99.00, which covers "Other" wheat and meslin. While 1001.91.00.00 is reserved for seed, 1001.99.00 would encompass wheat and meslin that is not intended for sowing, such as grain for consumption as food, animal feed, or industrial purposes. The key differentiator lies in the intended use and the quality standards associated with seed.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 1001.91.00.00 is definitive once the goods are confirmed as seed of wheat or meslin. Importers should ensure that documentation supporting the seed status, such as phytosanitary certificates or declarations of seed grade, is readily available for customs examination.
