Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If in dry state (crust), not wet
Dry equine crust leather (retanned/fat-liquored before drying) classifies under 4104.21 per crust note (b).
If surface finished or grain patterned
Further preparation beyond crust, like embossing or aniline finishing, makes it 'other finished equine leather' in 4107.
If already assembled into saddle or harness
Completed saddlery articles from this leather fall under Chapter 42 as saddlery rather than raw material hides.
