Import Tips

• Verify entry falls within Argentina's 20,000 MT annual quota under U.S. note 3; exceedance requires alternative classification or denial

• Include USDA FSIS import permit, health certificate from origin, and precise weight documentation as dutiable weight includes bones and fat

• Avoid common pitfalls like misdeclaring as full carcass (0202.10.10.50) or failing to specify quota compliance in entry summary
