Last updated: April 2026 dataMalt extract — in fluid, solid, and condensed forms — anchors this heading alongside a broad residual category of food preparations based on flour, starch, or dairy ingredients that do not fit more specific headings in Chapter 19. Canada and France lead US imports, with Singapore, China, and Mexico also significant, reflecting the heading's diverse product mix spanning malted milk powders, ready-to-eat puddings, cajeta (non-cow's-milk caramel), margarine cheese, and corn-soya or wheat-soya blended food aid preparations. Dairy-content thresholds tied to Chapter 4 additional notes recur throughout the 10-digit lines, and several lines address sugar content under Chapter 17 notes, making this one of the more administratively complex headings in Chapter 19. FDA prior notice requirements apply to all food preparations in this heading; consult a licensed customs broker or FDA-registered agent to confirm the correct classification and admissibility pathway for your specific product.

Cajeta — a caramel confection traditionally made from goat's milk — is specifically enumerated at line 1901903200 as 'cajeta not made from cow's milk.' This line exists because cajeta made from cow's milk would classify differently under dairy-related provisions. Importers must confirm the milk source used in production; a product labeled 'cajeta' but made from cow's milk may not correctly classify under 1901903200 and could require reclassification.
The US schedule enumerates fluid malt extract (1901901000) separately from solid or condensed malt extract (1901902000), with a general malt extract line (1901901500) also present. The physical form at the time of importation determines the applicable line. Fluid extracts are typically used in brewing and food manufacturing applications requiring immediate incorporation, while solid or condensed forms offer longer shelf life and easier transport — a distinction that also affects storage and handling documentation at entry.
