Partially Delactosed Whey Permeate from Japan

Partially Delactosed Whey Permeate is a whey product from ultrafiltration with 50-70% of lactose removed, retaining minerals and non-protein solids for bakery applications. It is classified under tariff item 0404.10.90 as modified whey, since the lactose removal constitutes a modification of natural whey constituents.

Import Tips

• Document the lactose removal percentage to distinguish from products with over 95% lactose, which fall under heading 17.02

• Ensure the product is labelled as modified whey for customs purposes

• Verify whether a tariff rate quota applies, as imports without a quota allocation may face higher over access commitment rates
