Import Tips

Verify entry against General Note 15 quotas for Australia (213,402 metric tons annually); exceedance triggers higher over-quota rates

Include USDA FSIS import permit, health certificate, and precise weight documentation—no allowance for bones or fat in dutiable weight

Avoid pitfalls by confirming 'half-carcass' definition (posterior half post-chilling) to prevent reclassification as other cuts
