Last updated: July 2026 dataBone-in cuts of sheep and lamb — including shoulders (0204222010), legs (0204222020), and loins (0204222030) — are among the most specification-sensitive fresh meat imports, with primal cut identity, weight range, and fat cover all affecting commercial value and classification. USDA FSIS reinspection is mandatory at the port of entry, and all shipments must originate from FSIS-approved foreign establishments. Australia and New Zealand are the leading suppliers, with Canada, Chile, and the United Kingdom also active in this heading. Importers should note that TRQ provisions apply and that cut-specific tariff lines require precise product descriptions on entry documentation.

The US schedule breaks out shoulders (0204222010), legs (0204222020), and loins (0204222030) as distinct 10-digit lines, with a residual 'not elsewhere specified' line (0204222090) for other bone-in lamb cuts, and a separate line (0204220000) for bone-in sheep cuts other than lamb. Accurate cut identification on the commercial invoice and FSIS certificate is essential to avoid misclassification.
Fresh bone-in lamb cuts are subject to tariff-rate-quota treatment rather than antidumping or countervailing duties. Importers should monitor CBP quota bulletins for current fill levels, as over-quota rates are significantly higher than in-quota rates and can materially affect landed cost.
