Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If in the wet state (wet blue)
Wet tanned goat skins before drying classified in 4104; dry crust requires dehydration process.
If further prepared with full grain surface finished
Once crust is finished (dyed, embossed), it moves to 4107 as finished leather, no longer 'not further prepared'.
If in wet state instead of dry
Same goat crust but wet form falls under 4106.32; state (dry vs wet) determines subheading.
