Background

In the Dec. 6, 2023, Customs Bulletin and Decisions, U.S. Customs and Border Protection reclassified processed brewer’s saved grains as other food preparations under HTSUS 2106.90.9998 (6.4 percent duty) rather than as other cereal flours under HTSUS 1102.90.6000 (9 percent duty).

The product at issue is produced from drying and milling brewing or distilling dregs and waste. It is in powder form and will be sold for use as fiber and/or protein ingredients in baked goods and other food applications.

Ruling HQ H322361 will revoke ruling NY N307210 to reflect this change, effective with respect to goods entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption on or after Feb. 5, 2024.

For more information on how to seek or utilize classification and other rulings, please contact attorney Deb Stern at (305) 894-1007 or via email.
