Import Tips
• Document specific processing steps (e.g
• denuding specs) to justify 'processed' status over unprocessed trims
• Confirm quota availability via USTR before shipment; over-quota incurs higher duties under 0202.30.50
• Label with full contents weight for airtight packaging per U.S. notes; test for bone fragments to maintain boneless status
