U.S. imports of fresh or chilled bone-in pork hams & shoulders (HS 020312) totaled $11.2M in April 2026, traded with 2 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataBone-in pork hams, shoulders, and their cuts in fresh or chilled form are split between processed (0203121010 for hams, 0203121020 for shoulders) and unprocessed (0203129010 and 0203129020) lines — a distinction that affects both duty treatment and admissibility pathway under USDA FSIS. Canada and Mexico dominate supply under this heading, and shipments from both countries benefit from USMCA trade arrangements, making North American sourcing the default for most US pork processors and retailers. Cold-chain continuity from slaughter through port reinspection is a critical compliance requirement given the fresh/chilled temperature constraint.

Under the US tariff schedule, 'processed' pork cuts generally include product that has been marinated, seasoned, or otherwise prepared beyond simple cutting and chilling. The processed versus unprocessed distinction maps to separate 10-digit lines with different duty rates, so importers should document the production method and confirm classification with a licensed customs broker.
Canada and Mexico are the leading suppliers of fresh bone-in pork hams and shoulders to the US, and both are USMCA partners. Qualifying originating goods may receive preferential tariff treatment, provided the shipment meets USMCA rules of origin and is accompanied by appropriate certification of origin documentation.
