About this product

Milk powder is one of the products where each side protects its farmers with a quota. Both the EU and Mercosur open quotas in which the duty is cut step by step, and the remaining lines stay excluded. If you trade milk powder, the quota pages matter more than any phase-out.

How the duty falls, year by year

Highest and lowest ad valorem duty each year over the lines on a path to zero. Excluded and quota-only lines keep their duty and aren't included.

Into the EU from Mercosur

Nothing to phase out in this direction: every line is already duty-free, excluded or only covered by a quota.

Into Brazil from the EU

Nothing to phase out in this direction: every line is already duty-free, excluded or only covered by a quota.

Lines by staging category

The staging category sets the speed of the cut: 0 is duty-free from entry into force, 4 to 15 are the years to zero, E is excluded and letter codes are quotas or special treatments.

Tariff-rate quotas

Rates in each Mercosur country

Each member has its own base rate and applied MFN rate. The preference is cut from the base rate, or from the applied rate where that's lower (Art. 2.4(7) of the agreement), so the current rate can differ by country.

Data and method

Worked out with the calculator's engine from the agreement schedules (Annex 2-A) and the applied-rate files, for agreement year 2026. Mercosur → EU figures assume Brazilian origin, which only matters for the few origin-specific quotas; EU → Mercosur figures are for Brazil unless the country table says otherwise.
