HS code 0207.24 is the 6-digit subheading for meat and edible offal, of turkeys, not cut in pieces, fresh or chilled. It is used for whole fresh turkey, whole chilled turkey hen, whole fresh turkey tom, whole chilled young turkey and whole fresh broiler turkey.
What HS 0207.24 covers
This HS code pertains to whole, fresh or chilled turkeys that have not been cut into pieces. While often associated with specific holiday seasons in some Western countries, whole turkeys are traded globally for various culinary uses, including roasting and further processing. The trade involves careful handling due to the bird's size and perishability, necessitating efficient cold chain logistics from farm to market. Importers typically include countries with a cultural tradition of turkey consumption or those looking to diversify their poultry supply. Exporters are major turkey-producing nations with robust processing and chilling capabilities. Strict adherence to food safety regulations, veterinary health certificates, and maintaining optimal temperature control are crucial for successful international trade in these products.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
