The National Milk Producers Federation and US Dairy Export Council submitted comments to the US Trade Representative identifying tariff and non-tariff barriers to US dairy exports across 32 countries. They cited EU restrictions on generic cheese names, regulatory hurdles in Southeast Asia and Canadian import quotas, and called for trade agreements and regulatory changes to improve market access.
If the identified barriers remain, they can restrict export demand for US dairy products, including whey powder; reducing them could support export volumes. The comments are an advocacy request, not an announced change to trade rules.
