Last updated: July 2026 dataMechanically worked cereal grains — hulled, pearled, sliced, or kibbled — that do not fall under more specific headings are captured here, with pearled barley (1104291000) and other worked cereals excluding rice (1104299000) as the two US tariff lines. Pearled barley is a widely traded ingredient in soups, stews, and health-food formulations, while the NESOI line covers processed forms of grains such as oats, rye, and millet. Canada and Italy lead US imports, with China and India contributing specialty grain varieties. The degree of mechanical processing — specifically whether the grain has been hulled, pearled, sliced, or kibbled rather than simply milled — is the defining classification criterion separating this heading from flour or meal subheadings.

Pearling is a mechanical abrasion process that removes the outer bran layers of a whole grain kernel, leaving a smooth, rounded grain intact. Milling, by contrast, grinds the grain into flour or meal. Pearled barley retains its kernel structure and classifies under 1104291000, while barley flour or meal would fall under a different heading. The physical form of the grain at import determines the correct classification.
The NESOI line captures worked forms of grains such as rye, millet, sorghum, and specialty ancient grains that have been hulled, sliced, or kibbled but do not fit the more specific barley line. Importers of less common grain varieties should verify that the product has not been further processed into flour or meal, which would shift classification, and should document the specific processing method on commercial invoices.
