📋 Code Structure

Chapter
Chapter 11 covers products of the milling industry, including cereal flours, starches, inulin, gluten, and various plant flours. The core of this chapter is powdered products made through physical processing such as milling and crushing, which are distinct from cereals for direct consumption or unprocessed plant materials. Within the chapter, headings are divided by raw material source and degree of processing, such as cereal fine flour, coarse meal, starch, etc.
Heading
Heading 1106 covers fine flour and coarse meal made from plant materials other than the fruits or nuts of Chapter 8 or the cereals of Chapter 10. Specifically, it includes nut flours such as coconut, Brazil nut, and cashew, as well as fruit flours such as banana and mango. This heading emphasizes that the raw material is fruit or nuts and has been subjected to crushing processing, but excludes cocoa powder (heading 1805) and coffee powder (heading 0901).
Digit Breakdown
The first 2 digits '11' represent Chapter 11: Products of the milling industry. Digits 3-4, '06', represent heading 1106: Other fine flour and coarse meal of plant origin. Digits 5-6, '30', represent subheading 110630: Other fruit flours, i.e., fruit flours other than specific fruits such as bananas and avocados. The code is refined level by level: chapter → heading → subheading, ensuring classification is precise down to the specific variety.
Classification Basis
This product is fruit flour; the raw material belongs to Chapter 8 fruits, and the processing method is crushing, which conforms to the description of heading 1106. Because it is not cereal flour (1101-1103), starch (1108), or cocoa powder (1805), it is classified under 110630. If it is mixed fruit flour, it is still classified according to the main component; if other substances are added, classification depends on the degree of processing.

📝 Declaration Elements

Product name
The specific name of the declared commodity, such as 'apple powder' or 'strawberry powder', which must be consistent with the actual goods.
⚠️ Filling in 'fruit powder' generically without specifying the specific fruit type.
Ingredient content
List the percentages of purity, moisture, additives, etc. of the fruit powder to ensure compliance with heading requirements.
⚠️ Ignoring additive ingredients, leading to incorrect classification.
Processing method
Explain the crushing method (such as grinding, spray drying) and whether heat treatment has been applied.
⚠️ Failing to indicate whether sugar or other substances have been added.
Packaging specifications
Fill in net weight and packaging form (such as bags, drums), which affect tax rates and regulatory conditions.
⚠️ Packaging specifications inconsistent with the actual goods, creating inspection risks.
Brand type
Indicate whether there is a brand, such as 'no brand' or the brand name, which involves intellectual property declaration.
⚠️ Ignoring the brand, leading to infringement risks.
Country of origin
Fill in the country where the fruit raw material is grown or processed, used to determine free trade agreement tax rates.
⚠️ Confusing the raw material origin with the processing location.
Production date
Mark the production batch and date to facilitate traceability and shelf-life management.
⚠️ Non-standard date format, such as '2023.1' should be written as '2023-01-01'.
Example:
Product name: apple powder; Ingredient content: apple 100%, moisture ≤5%; Processing method: spray drying; Packaging specifications: 25kg/bag; Brand type: no brand; Country of origin: China; Production date: 2025-03-01.

🎯 Classification Logic

Basis
The core basis for classification is the raw material attributes and processing technology. The raw material must be fruit of Chapter 8 and be crushed into fine flour or coarse meal. If the fruit powder is mixed with cereal flour or additives, it must be determined according to the main component or degree of processing. At the same time, specifically named fruit flours must be excluded (such as banana powder 110630? Actually banana powder is classified under 110630, but the subheading notes need to be confirmed).
Confused Codes:
110620 - Sago pith flour
The raw material is sago pith, not fruit, and the processing method is different.
110610 - Bean flour
The raw material is beans, belonging to Chapter 12, not fruit.
110510 - Potato flour
The raw material is potato, belonging to Chapter 7 vegetables, and the heading is different.
200989 - Other fruit juices
Fruit juice is liquid, not milled into powder, and is classified under Chapter 20.
080390 - Fresh bananas
Unprocessed fruit, classified under Chapter 8, fundamentally different from milled products.

❓ FAQ

Q: How to check the import tax rate for 110630?
A: It can be checked through customs tariff schedules, free trade agreement rate tables, or official databases, and must be combined with the country of origin and trade mode. Tax rates change, so the latest announcement should prevail.
Q: What is the difference in HS codes between fruit powder and fruit juice powder?
A: Fruit powder is classified under 110630, and fruit juice powder is classified under 2009. The difference lies in physical state: powder vs liquid. The processing methods are also different; fruit juice is pressed, while fruit powder is dried and crushed.
Q: How is mixed fruit powder classified?
A: If it is a mixture of multiple fruits, it is still classified under 110630, but the main ingredients must be declared. If cereal flour or sugar is added, classification may be affected and must be determined according to the main component.
Q: What are common errors in the declaration elements for fruit powder?
A: Common errors include generic product names, inaccurate ingredient content, unclear description of processing methods, and omission of brand and country of origin. Detailed completion is recommended to avoid inspection risks.
Q: What regulatory conditions are required for fruit powder export?
A: It must comply with the standards of the exporting and importing countries, such as sanitary quarantine and certificate of origin. Specific conditions vary by country; consult customs or professional agencies.
Q: What is the difference between 110630 and 110620?
A: 110630 is other fruit flour, and 110620 is sago pith flour. The raw materials are different: fruit vs sago pith. The source of raw materials must be confirmed during classification.
Q: If fruit powder is roasted, is it still classified under 110630?
A: If it is only roasted after crushing without changing its essential character, it may still be classified under 110630. But if it is deeply processed, such as made into pastries, it is classified under Chapter 19.
Q: How to determine whether fruit powder belongs to 'fine flour'?
A: Fine flour generally refers to powder that can pass through a specific sieve (such as aperture ≤0.2mm). For specific standards, refer to customs classification decisions; providing a particle size test report is recommended.
