1106.20.90.00 - Other

This HTS category, 1106.20.90.00, covers "Other" flours, meals, and powders derived from sago or from roots and tubers of heading 0714. This means it encompasses a broad range of pulverized vegetable products that do not fall under more specific classifications within this sub-heading. Examples include flours made from cassava, yams, sweet potatoes, and other roots and tubers listed in heading 0714, as well as sago flour, which is processed from the pith of certain palm trees. The key characteristic is that these products are in a finely ground or powdered form, intended for various industrial, food, or other applications.

This specific classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 1106.20.10.00, which exclusively covers flours and meals of Chinese water chestnuts. Therefore, any root, tuber, or sago-based flour or powder that is not derived from Chinese water chestnuts will be classified under this "Other" designation, provided it meets the general criteria of being a milled product. The scope is limited to those derived from sago or the specific roots and tubers enumerated in heading 0714.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. The classification is definitive at this level, meaning that once a product is determined to be a flour, meal, or powder of sago or of roots and tubers of heading 0714, and it is not specifically classified as Chinese water chestnut product, it will fall under this 1106.20.90.00 code. Importers and exporters should ensure the precise botanical origin and processing method are clearly documented to support this classification.
