Import Tips
• Label with exact temperature logs and slaughter date to meet FSIS import inspection standards
• Avoid bone-in mislabeling; tenderloin is boneless, which could trigger reclassification if disputed
• Check for additional tariffs on non-quota countries and prepare TRQ documentation if applicable
