Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If only crust leather, not further prepared
Crust (retanned/dried but not fully finished) stays in 4104; further preparation after crusting required for 4107.
If from sheep or lamb rather than bovine
Heading 4107 specifies animal type; non-bovine/equine leather like sheep goes to 4107.92.
If manufactured into finished belts
Finished belting articles (e.g., stitched belts) classify as articles in Chapter 42, not raw leather.

Import Tips & Compliance
