Last updated: April 2026 dataLive sheep imported into the United States enter under a single 10-digit tariff line (0104100000), with Canada and the United Kingdom as the leading source countries. USDA APHIS regulates the importation of live sheep, requiring health certificates and compliance with scrapie and other disease-control programs that vary by country of origin. The UK's status as a supplier reflects trade in specialty breeds valued by US producers for genetic improvement, while Canadian shipments tend to support both commercial production and direct slaughter. Importers should verify current APHIS regionalization and scrapie-status requirements, as these can affect admissibility from specific origins.

USDA APHIS applies country-specific import conditions for live sheep based on disease status, including scrapie and foot-and-mouth disease programs. Requirements for the United Kingdom may differ from those for Canada, particularly regarding scrapie genotyping or flock certification. Importers should consult current APHIS import conditions for the specific country of origin well before arranging shipment, as requirements can change with disease surveillance findings.
At the HS6 level, heading 010410 covers all live sheep without a purebred/non-purebred distinction — unlike the swine headings. However, importers should review the full US HTS schedule for any applicable 10-digit subdivisions or chapter notes that may affect duty treatment for purebred breeding animals, and consult a licensed customs broker for current classification guidance.
