Delactosed Permeate Liquid from Germany
Delactosed Permeate Liquid is a fluid whey permeate produced by ultrafiltration, removing more than 95% of lactose while retaining minerals and residual proteins. It is classified under tariff item 0404.10.90 as other whey, since it is a modified whey product but does not meet the criteria for other specific subheadings.

Import Tips
• Confirm the lactose content, as products with more than 95% lactose on a dry matter basis are excluded from Chapter 04
• Provide documentation on the ultrafiltration process to support classification as modified whey
• Verify whether a tariff rate quota applies, as imports without a quota allocation may face higher over access commitment rates
