Overview
This HTS classification, 4106.40.00.00, specifically covers tanned or crust skins of reptiles. This category encompasses a wide variety of skins derived from animals such as crocodiles, alligators, lizards, and snakes, which have undergone the tanning or crusting process. These skins are characterized by the removal of their natural wool or hair and are typically split but not further prepared beyond these initial stages of processing.
It is important to distinguish this category from its siblings. The sibling categories within 4106 pertain to tanned or crust skins of goats or kids, swine, or other animals that do not fall into the reptile classification. Therefore, the defining characteristic for classification within 4106.40.00.00 is the reptilian origin of the skin.
As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subdivisions. The scope of 4106.40.00.00 is exhaustive for tanned or crust reptilian skins that are without wool or hair on, whether or not split, but not further prepared. This includes skins intended for a range of end-uses, such as in the manufacturing of luxury goods, footwear, accessories, and upholstery.
