Overview
This HTS classification, 4301.80.02.40, specifically designates raw, unprocessed furskins of the marten species. These are whole furskins, which may include the head, tail, and paws, and are suitable for use by furriers in the manufacture of finished articles. The key characteristic is that the skins remain in their raw state, meaning they have not undergone tanning or any significant processing beyond preservation.
This category is distinguished from its sibling categories by the specific animal from which the furskin is derived. While other siblings like 4301.80.02.01 (hare), 4301.80.02.02 (rabbit), and 4301.80.02.03 (beaver) cover raw furskins of different species, 4301.80.02.40 exclusively pertains to marten. This precise identification is crucial for accurate tariff assessment and trade compliance.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. The classification is defined by the raw, whole furskin of the marten, ready for subsequent processing into garments, accessories, or other furrier products. The focus remains on the unprocessed state and the specific animal origin as the primary classification criteria.
