Last updated: April 2026 dataRennet — the enzyme complex used to coagulate milk in cheese production — is a narrowly traded but commercially critical input for dairy processors, and the entire heading resolves to a single 10-digit line (3507100000). Denmark and Italy dominate global rennet supply, reflecting the concentration of industrial enzyme and dairy-culture manufacturing in those countries. Because rennet is used as a food-processing aid, FDA oversight applies to imported product, and foreign manufacturers must be registered under applicable food facility registration requirements. Importers should also distinguish animal-derived rennet from microbial or fermentation-produced chymosin, as the latter may be classified elsewhere.

Traditional animal rennet extracted from calf stomachs falls squarely within 3507.10. Fermentation-produced chymosin (FPC) — the dominant commercial form today — is also classified here when presented as a rennet or rennet concentrate, but importers should confirm with CBP if the product is a highly purified enzyme preparation, as some formulations may be classified under 3507.90 depending on their composition and presentation.
Rennet imported as a food-processing enzyme must come from a facility registered with FDA under the Bioterrorism Act food facility registration program. Prior Notice of importation is required for food-contact enzyme preparations. Importers should also ensure the product complies with FDA's GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) status or has an applicable food additive authorization for its intended use in cheese manufacturing.
