Overview
This HTS category specifically classifies flours derived from buckwheat. Buckwheat flour is produced by milling buckwheat groats and is characterized by its distinct earthy flavor and nutritional profile, often used in traditional dishes, noodles, and baked goods.
This classification is differentiated from its sibling categories by the raw material used for milling. While it covers buckwheat flour, other flours such as rice flour (1102.90.25.00) and rye flour (1102.90.27.00) are distinctly classified based on the cereal grain from which they are derived. The term "Other" at this level implies that buckwheat flour represents a specific, individually identified type of flour within the broader "Cereal flours other than of wheat or meslin" group.
As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the primary focus for classification within this HTS code is the accurate identification of the product as flour derived exclusively from buckwheat, excluding any blended flours or products where buckwheat is not the principal milling ingredient.
