4302.20 - Heads, tails, paws and other pieces or cuttings, not assembled:

This HTS classification specifically covers detached parts of furskins that are not assembled into finished articles. This includes heads, tails, and paws, as well as other smaller pieces and cuttings derived from furskins. Importantly, these items must not have undergone any assembly process and are distinct from whole skins.

It's crucial to differentiate this category from its sibling, 4302.10, which covers whole skins of various fur animals, whether or not they include the head, tail, or paws, provided they remain unassembled. This current category, 4302.20, is for the individual components that have been separated from the whole skin and are not yet part of any larger assembled piece or finished product.

The subcategories under 4302.20 further refine the classification based on the specific type of fur. One branch distinguishes valuable furs such as beaver, chinchilla, fox, mink, and sable. The other branch, labeled "Other," encompasses pieces and cuttings from all other types of furskins not explicitly listed in the first subcategory, ensuring a comprehensive classification of all unassembled furskin parts.
