Import Tips

• Obtain APHIS import permit and ensure product meets FSIS residue testing; test for antibiotics common in lamb

• Declare exact trim specs (e.g

• 90CL/10F) to match invoice; discrepancies lead to CBP re-weighing

• Track calendar-year quotas closely for origins like New Zealand (no limit) vs. others to prevent over-quota surcharges
