Import Tips
• Confirm species documentation (Capra hircus) as goat meat shares heading with sheep but requires specific vet certs
• Track aggregate quotas if from quota-limited countries; no limits for Canada/Mexico
• Declare exact weight including bones; airtight container rules don't apply to fresh carcasses
