Milk and Milk-Based Products to the European Union for Livestock Feed
Colostrum and colostrum products:
APHIS cannot endorse certificates for exports of colostrum or products derived from colostrum to the European Union (EU). The EU has certification requirements for these products that cannot be endorsed by APHIS. APHIS has asked the EU to modify these requirements for products intended for animal consumption, and discussions are ongoing. Exception: Colostrum (intended and labeled for consumption by pet animals not including livestock species or horses) may be included in certain pet foods produced and exported under the Chapter 3(A) or Chapter 3(B) Health Certificates. For information on these certificates, please go back to the previous page and select the pertinent pet food links.
Ovine/Caprine (Sheep/Goat) milk products for feeding to farmed animals (other than fur bearing animals such as mink):
The EU requires certification for these materials (if imported for feeding to farmed animals other than fur bearing animals such as mink) that is not available for U.S.-origin materials. At this time, ovine/caprine-origin dairy products are ineligible for export to the EU for use in feed for farmed animals (other than fur bearing animals such as mink).
