Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 041010 when importing or exporting edible animal products like fresh milk and cream that aren’t classified elsewhere. For example, if you're shipping fresh milk from a dairy farm, this code applies.

This code specifically covers products such as fresh cream and milk, distinguishing them from processed dairy items classified under different HS codes. If you're dealing with powdered milk or cheese, you would need to look at other headings.

While 0410 includes a variety of animal products, 041010 narrows it down to those that are fresh and unprocessed. This is important for customs declarations, as the classification affects tariffs and regulations.

If you're unsure whether your product fits this code, consider its state and processing level. For instance, fresh goat's milk would fall under this code, while evaporated milk would not.
