Last updated: April 2026 dataTariff-rate-quota treatment applies to frozen whole and half bovine carcasses, with the US schedule distinguishing veal (0202100010 and 0202105010) from other bovine carcasses (0202100090 and 0202105090) — a split that affects both duty liability and quota tracking. All shipments require USDA FSIS reinspection at the port of entry from an approved foreign establishment before release into commerce. Nicaragua leads supply under this heading, with European sources including the Netherlands, France, and Ireland also present — an unusual supplier mix that reflects niche veal trade flows rather than commodity beef volume. Cold-chain integrity and establishment approval status are the primary compliance checkpoints importers must verify before shipment.

The schedule maintains separate 10-digit lines for veal carcasses and half-carcasses (0202100010 and 0202105010) versus other bovine carcasses (0202100090 and 0202105090). Correct species classification at entry is critical because the lines carry different quota eligibility and duty treatment.
Nicaragua has developed FSIS-approved beef processing establishments that export whole and half carcasses, making it a notable Central American source for this specific product form. European suppliers such as the Netherlands, France, and Ireland tend to concentrate on veal, reflecting distinct production systems in those markets.
