U.S. imports of Live Rabbits & Hares (HS 010614) totaled $416K in August 2026, imported from 3 countries.
Last updated: August 2026 dataLive rabbits and hares imported into the US fall under USDA APHIS jurisdiction, with health certification and, in some cases, quarantine requirements depending on the country of origin and intended use — whether for breeding stock, laboratory research, or the pet trade. Canada leads supply, followed by the United Kingdom, Spain, the Netherlands, and Italy, reflecting both proximity and established European rabbit breeding programs. Certain wild hare species may trigger additional review under the Lacey Act if harvest or export from the source country was unlawful. Importers should verify that the exporting country is on APHIS's approved list for the specific species and intended purpose before shipment.

Yes. The Lacey Act prohibits import of wildlife taken, possessed, or transported in violation of foreign law. Wild-caught hares must be accompanied by documentation confirming lawful harvest and export in the country of origin; failure to do so can result in seizure and penalties.
Live rabbits and hares are classified under Chapter 1 as live animals, not as poultry. Dressed or processed rabbit meat moves under separate headings in Chapter 2. The live animal classification determines which APHIS import pathway applies, distinct from FSIS oversight that governs rabbit meat products.
