It doesnt really expire. It's original form is anhydrous, meaning no water molecules. Over time, it becomes monohydrate (plus 1 molecule of water) upon reaction with air.

Citric acid does not have a specific expiration date as it is a shelf-stable product. However, it can lose potency over time which may affect its usefulness in cooking or cleaning applications. Make sure to store it in a cool, dry place to maintain its quality.
