Lactose-Reduced Whey Concentrate 80% from China

Whey concentrate with 60-80% protein where much of the lactose has been removed via ultrafiltration or chromatography, used in protein bars and beverages. Classified under HTS 0404.10.15.00 as 'modified whey' because lactose (a whey constituent) has been removed, distinguishing it from unmodified whey while not meeting exclusion criteria for other chapters.

Import Tips

Verify protein/lactose specs via third-party lab testing for Customs classification; monitor annual quota allocations under US notes for dried whey; avoid misdeclaration as infant formula components which have separate regs
