Import Tips
• Ensure EU export health certificates align with USDA requirements for swine fever-free status
• Weigh products bone-in only; US notes prohibit deductions for normal meat components like bone or fat
• Label clearly as 'spare ribs' to prevent downgrading to broader pork categories during customs exam
