Last updated: June 2026 dataFresh and chilled lamb carcasses and half-carcasses enter under a single tariff line (0204100000), making temperature-state documentation and cold-chain integrity the primary operational compliance concerns at the port of entry. Uruguay leads supply under this heading, followed by Australia, Canada, Spain, and Chile — a supplier mix that spans both Southern Hemisphere grass-fed lamb producers and European specialty sources. USDA FSIS reinspection is required from approved foreign establishments, and the short shelf life of fresh/chilled lamb makes transit time and port processing speed critical factors in sourcing decisions.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Fresh and chilled lamb carcasses have a limited shelf life — typically measured in days rather than weeks — meaning any delay at the port of entry for FSIS reinspection, documentation review, or logistics can result in product loss or forced downgrading. Importers typically work with FSIS-approved ports that have dedicated refrigerated inspection facilities and pre-clear documentation to minimize hold times.
Uruguay's grass-fed lamb industry produces carcasses that meet FSIS standards and are well-suited to the US specialty and foodservice market. Its geographic position and established FSIS-approved export infrastructure support consistent supply, though transit times from South America require careful scheduling to preserve product quality within the fresh/chilled temperature window. Consult a licensed customs broker or FSIS import specialist to confirm current establishment approval status before shipment.
