Last updated: April 2026 dataEvaporated milk and other non-powder concentrated unsweetened dairy products fall under this heading, which the US schedule further divides by container type — airtight versus non-airtight — and by TRQ eligibility, yielding four active 10-digit lines (0402911000, 0402913000, 0402917000, 0402919000). Peru and Mexico are the leading US import suppliers, with the Netherlands also a notable source. The container-type distinction is commercially significant because airtight packaging (typically cans) is the standard retail format for evaporated milk, while non-airtight formats are more common in food-service and industrial supply chains. USDA FSIS admissibility review applies to all entries.

The container distinction reflects different end-use markets and historically different duty treatments. Airtight containers — primarily cans — are associated with retail evaporated milk, while non-airtight formats serve bulk food-service and industrial uses. Importers must correctly identify the container type on entry documents, as misclassification between the airtight and non-airtight lines can result in duty discrepancies.
In-quota lines (referencing US additional note 11) carry lower duty rates up to the specified quantity limit. Once that limit is filled for the quota period, subsequent entries must be classified under the corresponding NESOI lines, which carry higher over-quota duties. Importers should monitor CBP's TRQ status reports and time shipments accordingly.
