About this HS Code
HS Code 0406 covers cheese and curd, representing dairy products with extended shelf-life for international trade. The classification distinguishes between fresh cheese/curd (0406.10), grated/powdered forms (0406.20), processed cheese (0406.30), blue-veined cheese (0406.40), and other cheeses (0406.90). This division supports a global dairy trade worth over $30 billion annually. Products range from commodity mozzarella for food service to protected designation of origin specialties like Parmigiano-Reggiano. Major exporters include the EU, New Zealand, and USA. Trade is regulated by complex tariff quotas, particularly in Canada, Japan, and other protected dairy markets.
