What is the Shelf life of infant Powdered formula?

Many good are still safe to use after their expiration date, but infant formula is not one of them. The date given on the formula container is the date after which the formula should not be used. The safety of a very young child may be at risk if the formula is consumed after the expiration date on the formula packet, and this is why there is a stricter rule about the expiration of infant foods than of other products.
