Overview
This classification, HTS Code 4301.80.02.01, specifically covers raw, undressed furskins of hare. These are the pelts of hares that have not undergone any tanning or processing for use in the furrier's trade, but are still suitable for such manufacturing. This includes entire skins as well as pieces or cuttings of hare that can be utilized in the creation of fur garments, trimmings, or other fur articles.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. While all are raw furskins of the "other" category (meaning not mink, fox, or other specific types listed in prior subheadings), 4301.80.02.01 is exclusively for hare. Siblings such as 4301.80.02.02 (rabbit), 4301.80.02.03 (beaver), and others, cover distinct animal species, each with its own unique characteristics and market value. Therefore, the correct identification of the animal species is the primary criterion for differentiating these categories.
As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 4301.80.02.01. This means that any raw, undressed furskin originating from a hare, suitable for furriers' use and not fitting into any more specific preceding categories, will be classified here. The focus remains on the raw state of the fur and its origin from the hare species.
