1103.11.00.40 - Other

This HTS category, HTS Code 1103.11.00.40, encompasses wheat groats and meal that do not fall under the specific classification of semolina. Groats are essentially coarse grains produced by debranning and milling cereal grains, while meal is a finer product resulting from further grinding of these groats. Both are derived from wheat and retain a significant portion of the original grain's characteristics.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 1103.11.00.20 (Semolina), is crucial. Semolina is a specific type of wheat meal with a coarser texture, typically produced from durum wheat. This "Other" category captures all other wheat groats and meals that do not meet the precise milling specifications or varietal origin of semolina, potentially including products from other wheat varieties or those with a finer grind than typical semolina.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under this code relies on identifying products as wheat groats or meal that are not specifically classified as semolina. Practical classification considerations would involve examining the particle size distribution and the type of wheat used in the milling process to ensure accurate differentiation from semolina.
