2302.10.00.00 - Of corn (maize)

This HTS category, 2302.10.00.00, specifically classifies residues and waste derived from the sifting, milling, or other working of corn (maize). These materials are byproducts of corn processing, often used as ingredients in animal feed due to their nutritional content. Examples include corn bran, corn sharps, and other residual fractions obtained from the processing of corn kernels.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling categories by the specific cereal from which the residue is derived. While 2302.30.00 covers residues of wheat, and 2302.40.01 encompasses residues of other cereals, this code is exclusively for those originating from corn. Similarly, it differs from 2302.50.00.00, which is reserved for residues from leguminous plants. The defining characteristic for this code is the corn origin of the residue.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subdivisions under this specific code. Therefore, classification within 2302.10.00.00 is determined solely by the material being a residue of corn processing, intended for animal feed or similar industrial uses, and not originating from other cereals or leguminous plants.
