Last updated: July 2026 dataVeterinary vaccines imported into the US are regulated by USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) under the Virus-Serum-Toxin Act, which requires that the foreign manufacturer hold a valid USDA license or that the product be covered by an import permit before entry. Spain leads US supply under this heading, followed by Canada and New Zealand — a supplier mix that spans both large-scale European manufacturers and Southern Hemisphere producers serving livestock-intensive industries. All imports clear under a single tariff line (3002420000), but APHIS review, product licensing, and label approval requirements make pre-import coordination with USDA essential. Canada's participation as a leading supplier means USMCA may be relevant to duty treatment for qualifying shipments.

USDA APHIS regulates veterinary biologics under the Virus-Serum-Toxin Act. Foreign manufacturers must hold a USDA APHIS veterinary biologics establishment license, and each product must be licensed or covered by an import permit. Importers should contact APHIS's Center for Veterinary Biologics well in advance of the first shipment to confirm licensing status.
Live (modified-live) veterinary vaccines may face additional APHIS biosafety review and stricter containment requirements during transport compared to killed or subunit vaccines, because of the potential risk of introducing viable biological agents. The distinction can also affect storage and handling documentation required at the port of entry. Importers should specify the vaccine type clearly in entry documentation.
