Last updated: April 2026 data

Bone-in sheep and lamb cuts — including shoulders (0204222010), legs (0204222020), and loins (0204222030) — are the primary retail and foodservice form for imported lamb in the US market. Australia and New Zealand together dominate supply under this heading, with Canada, Chile, and Spain also contributing. The US schedule's cut-specific 10-digit lines mean that the declared cut description must match the physical product precisely, as misidentification between a leg and a loin, for example, can trigger reclassification. USDA FSIS reinspection is required at the port of entry.

Frequently Asked Questions

What documentation should accompany a shipment of fresh bone-in lamb legs from Australia to ensure smooth FSIS clearance?

The shipment should include a foreign government inspection certificate from Australia's competent authority, the FSIS-approved establishment number on the packaging, a commercial invoice with the specific cut description, and a packing list. FSIS will reinspect the product at the US port of entry, so ensuring the physical product matches the declared cut and weight is essential to avoid holds or refusals.

Does the tariff-rate quota for lamb apply differently to specific bone-in cuts versus whole carcasses?

The US lamb TRQ framework applies across ovine meat headings but may be structured with separate quota allocations or thresholds for different product forms. Importers should consult the current TRQ proclamation and work with a licensed customs broker to determine which quota category applies to their specific cut, as in-quota and over-quota duty rates can differ materially.
