Oats

Not Kosher for Passover
Not kosher. Oats are not considered kosher for Passover by most Ashkenazi authorities because they are classified as one of the five grains that can ferment and become chametz. Additionally, there is a concern about cross-contamination with wheat during processing. Some Sephardic communities may have more lenient views, but generally, oats are avoided during Passover.
