4107.99.70.30 - Belting

This HTS classification, 4107.99.70.30, pertains to "Belting" made from leather of bovine (including buffalo) or equine animals that has been further prepared after tanning or crusting. This includes leather that is parchment-dressed, and it is specifically for material without hair on, whether or not it has been split. The "Not fancy" designation indicates that the leather is not embossed, printed, or otherwise decorated to create a decorative or ornamental effect.

The key distinction for this subcategory lies in the specific end-use and physical characteristic of "belting." While sibling categories such as "Glove and garment," "Bag, case, strap and collar," and "Other" also fall under this broad leather classification, they are differentiated by their intended application. This category is strictly for leather prepared for use in belts, which often implies a certain thickness, tensile strength, and rigidity necessary for functional belting applications.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 4107.99.70.30 depends on the accurate identification of the material as leather derived from bovine or equine animals, further processed, de-haired, and specifically manufactured or intended for use as belting, without ornamental enhancements. It is crucial to distinguish between leather prepared for belting and similar leather that may be used for straps, which would fall under sibling categories.
