Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 110710 when importing or exporting unroasted malt, which is essential in brewing beer and baking. For example, a shipment of 1,000 kg of barley malt destined for a craft brewery would fall under this code.

This code specifically covers malt that has not undergone roasting, distinguishing it from HS-6 110720, which pertains to roasted malt. Unroasted malt is typically lighter in color and flavor, making it suitable for various applications in food and beverage production.

Malt classified under this HS-6 is derived primarily from barley and is processed to maintain its natural enzymes, which are crucial for fermentation in brewing. It can also be used in the production of malt extract and malted milk.

When considering malt shipments, ensure that the product is labeled clearly as unroasted malt. This helps avoid misclassification and potential customs delays.
