Description

The commodity consists of raw milk that has been processed to retain a minimum fat content of 3 % by weight, resulting in a semi‑liquid dairy product commonly known as whole milk. It is pasteurised and packaged directly after extraction to preserve its natural composition.

Export Considerations

Because the product is perishable, it must be shipped in refrigerated containers (reefers) with temperature maintained at 2‑4 °C, and the exporter should attach a health certificate and a certificate of origin to satisfy the buyer’s customs requirements; the commodity is freely exportable from India without a licence.
