Last updated: April 2026 dataWheat flour and meslin flour (milled from a blend of wheat and rye) are foundational baking ingredients whose import volumes are shaped by domestic milling capacity and price differentials with foreign producers. FDA regulates food-grade wheat flour for labeling, enrichment standards, and allergen declarations — wheat being a major food allergen requiring explicit label disclosure under US law. Importers should also be aware that wheat flour can be subject to tariff-rate-quota treatment at the HTS level, making quota timing and certificate-of-quota eligibility a critical part of landed-cost planning.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Wheat flour can be subject to tariff-rate-quota (TRQ) provisions at the HTS level, meaning in-quota shipments carry a lower duty rate while over-quota volumes face a higher rate. Importers should verify current quota availability and obtain any required quota certificates before shipment to avoid unexpected duty liability.
Retail-packaged wheat flour must comply with FDA enrichment standards (if sold as enriched flour), ingredient labeling rules, and the major food allergen declaration requirement — wheat must be identified as an allergen on the label. Importers should review 21 CFR Part 137 and FDA allergen guidance before releasing product into US commerce.
