Import Tips & Compliance
โข Verify entry eligibility under additional U.S. note 3 quota allocations by country (e.g
โข 20,000 MT for Argentina); exceedance requires alternative HTS
โข Include full container weight in dutiable quantity per U.S. notes; no deductions for bones or fat as product is boneless
โข Obtain USDA import permit and ensure FSIS inspection; common pitfall is mislabeling primal cut leading to reclassification
