Last updated: August 2026 dataWhole milk powder and solid cream products with fat content above 1.5% by weight serve as key inputs for chocolate manufacturing, recombined dairy products, and infant formula globally. The higher fat threshold separates these products from skim milk powder both commercially and for tariff purposes, with US dairy TRQ schedules treating them under distinct quota categories. USDA FSIS approval of the foreign establishment and port-of-entry reinspection are mandatory for all solid dairy imports. Fat content certification from an accredited laboratory should accompany each shipment to prevent reclassification disputes.

Yes. Both milk and cream in solid form with fat content exceeding 1.5% by weight fall under this heading. The distinction between them matters commercially — cream powder carries a higher fat level — but both share the same SITC classification and are subject to the same TRQ and FSIS admissibility requirements.
US tariff-rate quotas for whole milk powder allocate a fixed annual volume at lower in-quota duty rates; imports above that threshold face significantly higher over-quota rates. Quota years and allocation methods are set by USDA and CBP, so importers should monitor quota fill rates and time shipments accordingly to manage landed cost.
