Last updated: August 2026 dataWhole milk powder (WMP) and other unsweetened concentrated milk solids with fat content exceeding 1.5% are widely used in confectionery, bakery, and recombined dairy manufacturing. The US tariff schedule for this heading is notably granular, subdividing entries by three fat-content bands — under 3%, 3%–35%, and over 35% — and by TRQ eligibility within each band, yielding eight active 10-digit lines. Mexico and the Netherlands lead US imports under this heading. Importers should confirm which fat-content tier applies to their specific product specification before filing entry, as misclassification between bands carries duty consequences.

Classification depends on the product's fat content by weight: lines 0402210200/0402210500 cover fat under 3%; lines 0402213000/0402215000 cover 3%–35% fat; and lines 0402217500/0402219000 cover over 35% fat. Within each band, the in-quota line (referencing a US additional note) applies when TRQ space is available; otherwise the NESOI line applies. A certified lab analysis of fat content and confirmation of TRQ availability are both essential before filing.
The Netherlands is a major European dairy processing hub with significant export infrastructure, and Dutch exporters supply specialty fat-standardized milk powders used in food manufacturing applications where European specifications are preferred. Proximity to other EU milk pools also allows Dutch processors to source and standardize raw milk efficiently for export.
