Last updated: August 2026 dataPreserved through salting, brining, drying, or smoking, these not-elsewhere-specified meat and edible offal products — including derived flours and meals — occupy a residual classification that catches specialty cured items not captured by species-specific headings. USDA FSIS oversight applies at the port of entry, requiring shipments to originate from approved foreign establishments and pass reinspection before release into US commerce. The breadth of the NES designation means importers must document species identity and processing method carefully to avoid misclassification disputes at entry.

USDA FSIS requires that all imported salted, dried, or smoked meat and offal products originate from FSIS-approved foreign establishments. Upon arrival, shipments are subject to reinspection at the port of entry, which may include label review, organoleptic examination, and laboratory sampling depending on the product type and country of origin.
Importers should provide a detailed product specification sheet identifying the animal species, the preservation method (salting, brining, drying, or smoking), and whether the product is a flour or meal derivative. This documentation supports correct SITC classification and helps avoid reclassification into a species-specific heading, which may carry different duty treatment.
