1102.20.00.00 - Corn (maize) flour

This category specifically covers flours derived from corn, also commonly known as maize. These flours are produced by milling corn grains and are distinguished by their origin from this specific cereal. Examples include fine corn flour used for baking, coarser cornmeal for culinary purposes, and various grades of cornstarch intended for food applications.

Within Chapter 11, which deals with products of the milling industry, this HTS code differentiates corn flour from flours of other cereals. Its sibling category, 1102.90, encompasses flours of any other cereal not otherwise specified. Therefore, if a flour is derived from barley, rye, rice, or oats, it would fall under 1102.90, whereas flour made exclusively from corn belongs here.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subdivisions within 1102.20.00.00. The classification is considered final at this level, meaning that all forms of corn flour, regardless of fineness or intended use, are encompassed within this single code.
