4301.60.30.00 - Of silver, black or platinum fox (including those of any fox which is a mutation, or type developed, from silver, black or platinum foxes)

This HTS classification, 4301.60.30.00, specifically covers raw, undressed furskins of fox that are derived from or are mutations of silver fox, black fox, or platinum fox. This includes whole fox skins, with or without their heads, tails, or paws, provided they are suitable for use by furriers. The key identifying characteristic for this category is the specific genetic origin or mutation of the fox, resulting in the characteristic silver, black, or platinum coloration of the pelt.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 4301.60.60.00, is crucial. While both fall under raw fox furskins, this specific classification is reserved for the aforementioned color variants. The sibling category, "Other," would encompass raw fox furskins that do not originate from silver, black, or platinum fox mutations, such as those of red fox or grey fox, assuming they meet the general criteria for heading 4301.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 4301.60.30.00. Therefore, the classification is solely determined by the raw furskin being from a silver, black, or platinum fox (or a direct mutation thereof), whole and suitable for furriers' use. The distinction from other raw furskins of fox lies entirely within the genetic makeup and resulting fur color of the animal.
