4205.00.60.00 - Of reptile leather 🖩

This HTS classification covers articles made from reptile leather, excluding those already specified in more precise subheadings. Reptile leather, derived from animals such as snakes, lizards, and crocodiles, forms the primary material for these goods. Examples include accessories like wallets, belts, watch straps, and decorative items where the distinct texture and pattern of reptile skin are a defining characteristic. The classification hinges on the exclusive use or predominant composition of reptile leather in the article's manufacture.

This specific subheading, 4205.00.60.00, is distinguished from its sibling, 4205.00.80.00, by its material specificity. While 4205.00.80.00 encompasses all other articles of leather or composition leather not otherwise specified, this subheading precisely targets items manufactured from reptile leather. This ensures that goods with the unique properties and often higher value associated with reptile hides are categorized distinctly from more general leather articles.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories under 4205.00.60.00. Therefore, the focus for classification purposes remains on accurately identifying the article as being predominantly or exclusively composed of reptile leather and ensuring it does not fall under any other more specific chapter or heading provisions.
