Last updated: April 2026 dataEdible offal from cattle — including organs such as liver, kidney, heart, and tripe — shipped fresh or chilled enters under a single US tariff line (0206100000) and requires USDA FSIS reinspection at the port of entry from an approved foreign establishment.

AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes — fresh or chilled edible bovine offal is consolidated under the single 10-digit line 0206100000 regardless of organ type (liver, kidney, heart, tongue, tripe, etc.). This differs from frozen bovine offal, which is subdivided by organ type across multiple tariff lines. Importers should note that tongues, while technically offal, have their own frozen heading (020621) and may be treated differently in trade statistics.
Mexico is the leading supplier of fresh bovine offal to the US. Shipments must originate from a USDA FSIS-approved Mexican establishment, be accompanied by a SENASICA-issued inspection certificate recognized by FSIS, and undergo reinspection at a designated US port of entry. Given the short shelf life of fresh offal, importers should pre-clear FSIS inspection appointments to minimize port dwell time.
