Common boneless lamb cuts include boneless legs, boneless shoulders, boneless loins, diced lamb, and trim. These are often vacuum-packed and shipped chilled from Australia and New Zealand to US importers.
The US maintains a TRQ for sheep and lamb meat. Boneless lamb imports within the quota receive a lower duty rate, while over-quota shipments are subject to a higher rate. Importers must monitor quota fill levels through USDA and CBP to optimize duty costs.
No. If boneless lamb has been marinated, seasoned, or otherwise prepared, it may no longer qualify as fresh or chilled meat under Chapter 02 and could be reclassified under Chapter 16 (prepared or preserved meat). Importers should consult a customs broker for such products.
