Cereal grains, rolled or flaked, other than oats.
Classification of flaked wheat under HS 1104.19
Flaked wheat falls under HS code 1104.19, which serves as the residual category for rolled or flaked cereal grains other than oats. Like flaked oats, flaked wheat is a product of the milling industry where the grain has been steamed and rolled to flatten it. This process increases the surface area and breaks down the cellular structure, making it highly useful for brewing or baking applications. The classification follows GRI 1 and GRI 6, moving from the general heading of 11.04 (worked grains) to the specific subheading for "other" grains. It is important to distinguish these from wheat flakes that have been toasted or seasoned, which are classified as prepared foods in Chapter 19. The grains in 1104.19 are considered intermediate goods. The moisture content and the degree of rolling must meet the standards of Chapter 11, ensuring the product is a result of milling rather than culinary preparation. This code is essential for brewers importing unmalted wheat for head retention and body in various beer styles.

Codes often confused with 1104.19
Common mistake. Flaked wheat is often confused with HS code 1101.00 (wheat flour) or HS code 1001.99 (raw wheat). It is also frequently misclassified under 1904.10 if the importer assumes all "flakes" belong with breakfast cereals. However, 1104.19 is specifically for grains that are rolled but not yet cooked or toasted.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
