Import Tips
• Verify country of origin quotas (e.g
• 378,214 MT for Canada, limits for Argentina) via USTR regulations to avoid over-quota duties
• Include bones, fat, and hide in dutiable weight per U.S. notes; provide veterinary certificates for freshness
• Ensure product is fresh/chilled, not frozen (0202), and fits 'other cuts with bone in' to prevent reclassification
