HS-6 · Subheading
350220
Albumins; milk albumin, including concentrates of two or more whey proteins
Heading 3502 — Albumins (including concentrates of two or more whey proteins, containing by weight more than 80% whey proteins, calculated on the dry matter), albuminates and other albumin derivatives
Chapter 35: Albuminoidal substances
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 350220 when importing or exporting albumins, specifically milk albumin and concentrates of whey proteins with over 80% protein content. For example, a shipment of milk albumin powder used in dietary supplements would fall under this code.
This code applies to products that are primarily derived from milk proteins, distinguishing them from other protein sources like soy or plant-based proteins. In contrast, HS-6 350210 covers egg albumin, which is a different protein source with its own specific applications.
When classifying products, note that HS-6 350220 focuses on milk-derived albumins, while HS-6 350230 includes other albumin derivatives. If your product is a whey protein concentrate used in food processing, it likely fits here.
Be aware that albumins can be used in various applications, from food products to pharmaceuticals. Understanding the specific composition and intended use of your product is crucial for accurate classification.
