The US tariff schedule separates bacon of swine (0210120020) from other belly cuts that are salted, brined, dried, or smoked but not classified as bacon (0210120040). The distinction turns on the specific processing method and cut presentation; importers should confirm classification with a licensed customs broker before entry.
Shipments must originate from a USDA FSIS-approved foreign establishment and be accompanied by a foreign government health certificate. FSIS reinspects each shipment at the US port of entry. EU establishments must appear on the FSIS-approved list, and any labeling must comply with USDA requirements before the product can enter commerce.
