Last updated: August 2026 dataRabbit and hare meat and offal — across all temperature conditions — are classified under a single US tariff line (0208100000), with China and Spain leading supply to the US market. Rabbit is not an amenable species under the Federal Meat Inspection Act, so USDA FSIS mandatory reinspection does not apply in the same manner as for beef or poultry; however, FDA oversight and general food-safety admissibility requirements still govern entry. Imports from China may be subject to Section 301 tariffs, making origin verification and tariff engineering a relevant consideration for cost management.

Rabbit is not currently listed as an amenable species under the Federal Meat Inspection Act, so USDA FSIS mandatory ante-mortem and post-mortem inspection requirements that apply to beef, pork, and poultry do not extend to rabbit in the same way. FDA has general oversight of rabbit as a food commodity, and importers should confirm current agency jurisdiction with a licensed customs broker or regulatory counsel before shipment.
Rabbit meat from China may be subject to Section 301 tariffs in addition to the base MFN duty rate, materially affecting landed cost. Imports from Spain, as an EU member, are not subject to Section 301 measures. Importers sourcing from multiple origins should track the current Section 301 product list and consider the cost differential when making sourcing decisions.
