Last updated: April 2026 dataLive sheep imported into the United States enter under a single tariff line (0104100000) and are subject to USDA APHIS quarantine and health-certification requirements that address scrapie status, foot-and-mouth disease freedom, and other flock-health conditions. Canada is the primary supplier, with the United Kingdom also a notable source — though UK-origin animals face additional documentation scrutiny given differing disease-status protocols. Importers should verify current APHIS import conditions well in advance, as health-status requirements can change with disease outbreaks in exporting regions.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. USDA APHIS evaluates the scrapie risk classification of the country of origin when determining import conditions for live sheep. Animals from countries or regions with higher scrapie risk may face additional testing, quarantine periods, or outright import restrictions. Importers should check the current APHIS import conditions for the specific country of origin before arranging shipment.
At the HS6 level, 010410 covers all live sheep without a weight or purpose split. The US 10-digit schedule consolidates these animals into a single line (0104100000), so purebred breeding sheep and slaughter-weight animals are classified identically at entry. However, the animal's intended use may still affect APHIS permit requirements and any applicable quota treatment.
