Last updated: August 2026 dataFrozen cut poultry — including bone-in and boneless portions of chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, and guinea fowl, as well as edible offal — represents the largest volume segment of international poultry trade, driven by the logistics advantages of frozen storage and the global demand for specific cuts. USDA FSIS reinspection at an approved US port of entry is required for all shipments, and country eligibility is determined by FSIS's equivalence determination process. Chicken leg quarters and wings are among the most actively traded cut forms under this heading, with pricing sensitive to domestic US production cycles and export demand from competing markets.

Importers and exporters track this subheading closely because global price differentials for dark meat cuts can shift rapidly with changes in US domestic production and competing export demand from other major producing countries.
Yes. All edible poultry products, including offal such as gizzards and hearts, must originate from a country and establishment that FSIS has determined maintains a food safety inspection system equivalent to the US system. There is no separate eligibility pathway for offal versus muscle meat.
