Last updated: August 2026 dataUnmilled millet enters US commerce as a raw grain used across bird feed, human food, and brewing applications — a breadth that can complicate classification when the declared end-use differs from the physical form. Pearl, proso, foxtail, and finger varieties are all commercially traded under this heading, and importers should confirm whether the shipment meets food-grade or feed-grade specifications before entry, as FDA oversight applies to food-destined grain. Because no children tariff lines are provided for this SITC code, duty treatment and any applicable quota conditions should be verified at the HTS level with a licensed customs broker.

Millet destined for human consumption is subject to FDA food-safety oversight, while feed-grade millet follows a different compliance path. Importers must accurately declare end-use on entry documents, as misclassification between food and feed grades can trigger admissibility issues at the port.
Pearl, proso, foxtail, and finger millet are the principal commercial varieties. Buyers and customs filers should specify the variety in commercial documentation because different varieties can carry different moisture tolerances, grading standards, and buyer specifications — all of which affect contract compliance and inspection outcomes.
