4113.30.30.00 - Not fancy 🖩

This HTS category, 4113.30.30.00, specifically covers leather derived from reptiles that has undergone further preparation after the tanning or crusting process. This includes processes like parchment dressing. The key defining characteristic is that the leather is "not fancy," meaning it does not possess decorative finishes, elaborate embossing, or other embellishments that would elevate it to a more specialized or aesthetically driven classification. The leather will also be without wool or hair and may be split.

The distinction between this subcategory and its sibling, 4113.30.60.00 ("Fancy"), lies solely in the level of aesthetic finishing. While both are leathers of reptiles, prepared after tanning or crusting, the "fancy" designation implies value-added decorative treatments. This category, conversely, is for reptile leather that has been processed to a functional state but has not undergone such specialized finishing.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 4113.30.30.00 is definitive for reptile leather that meets the preparation criteria and lacks any "fancy" or decorative attributes. Practical examples of goods falling here might include basic reptile skins intended for further manufacturing into less ornate items where the natural texture or grain of the reptile skin is the primary characteristic, rather than applied decoration.
