Chapter 04 classification notes

Dairy imports face tariff-rate quotas in the US, EU, UK and Canada; in-quota rates are low, over-quota rates often exceed 100%. Lactoferrin and milk derivatives sometimes classified under Chapter 35 instead.

Frequent misclassification in this chapter

Infant formula: classifies under Chapter 19 (1901.10), not Chapter 04. Ice cream: Chapter 21 (2105). Processed cheese products with < 60% cheese content may fall in Chapter 21.

Classification certainty

The 6-digit level shown here is the internationally harmonised layer. Duty rates attach to national 8-10 digit tariff lines, which differ by country — use the duty calculator for lane estimates. For binding certainty, request a ruling from the destination customs authority.
