1104.29 - Of other cereals:

This HTS category, 1104.29, encompasses cereal grains that have undergone specific working processes, excluding rice. The "other cereals" designation signifies that it covers grains other than oats (1104.22) and corn (maize) (1104.23), which are classified under separate sibling headings. Examples of working processes include hulling, rolling, flaking, pearling, slicing, or kibbling. Therefore, this heading applies to products like hulled barley, flaked rye, or pearled wheat, provided they are not classified elsewhere.

The distinction from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. While 1104.22 deals exclusively with processed oats and 1104.23 with processed corn, this heading serves as a catch-all for other commonly consumed grains that have been mechanically altered from their whole state. The key differentiator is the specific type of cereal grain and the fact that it has been processed in a manner beyond simple milling into flour or groats, but before reaching the level of specific finished food products.

Within this category, further subheadings provide more granular classification. 1104.29.10.00 specifically covers products derived from barley, a widely used cereal grain for food and brewing. The remaining products, falling under 1104.29.90.00, are designated as "Other." This residual subheading is designed to capture all other worked cereal grains not specifically enumerated in the preceding subheadings, ensuring comprehensive coverage for a variety of processed grains such as rye, sorghum, millet, and triticale that have undergone similar working processes.
