1104.19.10.00 - Of barley

This HTS classification, 1104.19.10.00, specifically covers rolled or flaked grains derived from barley. This includes barley that has undergone processes such as hulling, rolling, flaking, pearling, slicing, or kibbling, but excludes rice of heading 1006 and germ of cereals. The key characteristic is the physical alteration of the barley grain into a form that is ready for further processing or direct consumption, with the emphasis being on the rolled or flaked presentation.

Distinguishing this subcategory from its sibling, 1104.19.90.00 ("Other"), is crucial. While 1104.19.90.00 would encompass rolled or flaked grains from cereals other than barley that are not specifically itemized elsewhere, 1104.19.10.00 is exclusively dedicated to those products originating from barley. Therefore, if the rolled or flaked grain is identifiable as barley, it falls under this heading, whereas other cereal types in this form would be classified under the residual "Other" category.

As a leaf node, 1104.19.10.00 does not have further subcategories. This means that any product meeting the criteria of rolled or flaked barley will be classified directly here, without requiring a more granular breakdown. Practical classification relies on verifying the origin of the grain (barley) and its processed state (rolled or flaked).
