Last updated: April 2026 dataMilled from hard spring, durum, or white winter wheat โ or from meslin (a wheat-rye blend) โ this heading's US tariff schedule breaks out distinct 10-digit lines for each flour type, including a dedicated line for certified organic flour (1101000050), reflecting strong retail and food-manufacturing demand for traceable organic inputs. Canada is the dominant supplier, consistent with its role as a major wheat-milling country with USMCA proximity advantages; Italy and Mexico are also significant sources, particularly for durum and specialty flours. FDA regulates imported flour as a food ingredient, and shipments must comply with applicable food-safety documentation requirements. Importers should pay close attention to grade and variety declarations, as misclassifying durum flour (1101000020) versus general wheat flour can affect both duty liability and FDA labeling compliance.

Meslin flour โ ground from a mixture of wheat and rye sown and harvested together โ is explicitly covered by heading 110100 alongside pure wheat flour. The key is that the blend must be a traditional meslin mixture rather than a post-milling blend of separately produced flours, which could fall under a mixture provision. CBP has issued rulings on this distinction, and obtaining a binding ruling is advisable for novel blends.
Imported wheat flour is subject to FDA's Prior Notice requirement under the Bioterrorism Act, and the facility producing it must be registered with FDA. Shipments may be subject to examination or sampling for pesticide residues, mycotoxins, and adulterants. Allergen labeling compliance (wheat is a major food allergen) must also be confirmed before the product enters US commerce. Consult a licensed customs broker or regulatory specialist familiar with FDA food-import procedures.
