Last updated: April 2026 dataPoults — young turkeys at or below 185 g — are classified under a single US tariff line (0105120000) and serve primarily as breeding or grow-out stock for the commercial turkey industry. USDA APHIS governs admissibility, with avian influenza freedom in the region of origin being the central health requirement. Canada is the dominant supplier, a pattern driven by integrated North American turkey genetics programs and the ease of land-border transport for live poultry. Importers must hold a valid APHIS import permit and ensure the exporting flock's health certificates are current at the time of shipment.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. USDA APHIS requires an import permit for live poultry, including turkey poults, regardless of origin. The permit application must specify the species, number of birds, source flock, and intended use. Even for routine Canada-origin shipments, the permit must be obtained in advance and accompany the shipment at the port of entry.
Yes — poults may be imported as purebred breeding stock, for research, or for exhibition, but the intended use affects the APHIS permit conditions and potentially the applicable tariff treatment. Breeding-stock imports typically require additional flock-health documentation from the exporting establishment, and any change in intended use after entry may require APHIS notification.
