Import Tips
• Specify lean trim % for potential 9903 eligibility (e.g
• Argentina quarterly 20k MT); test for residues
• Label clearly as 'flank trimmings' to avoid chuck classification; include full container weight for canned
• Pre-clear with CBP for quota status; common pitfall is exceeding country-specific annual limits
