4302.20.30.00 - Of beaver, Caracul or Persian lamb, chinchilla, ermine, fisher, fitch, fox, Kolinsky, leopard, lynx, marten, mink, nutria, ocelot, otter, pony, racoon, sable or wolf

This HTS category, 4302.20.30.00, specifically classifies prepared heads, tails, paws, and other pieces or cuttings of furskins that are not assembled. These are raw or dressed furskin parts, meaning they have undergone tanning or dressing processes, but they remain separate components rather than being sewn or otherwise joined together to form a complete article. The key characteristic is that these are individual components, not finished fur products.

Within the broader category of "Heads, tails, paws and other pieces or cuttings, not assembled," this specific subheading is differentiated by the nature of the furskin material. Unlike the sibling category which likely encompasses "Other" types of furskin parts, this subheading is designated for pieces derived from a very specific and valuable list of animals. This includes furskins of beaver, Caracul or Persian lamb, chinchilla, ermine, fisher, fitch, fox, Kolinsky, leopard, lynx, marten, mink, nutria, ocelot, otter, pony, racoon, sable, or wolf. The particular animal origin is a critical determinant for classification under this HTS code.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 4302.20.30.00 hinges entirely on the identification of the furskin as originating from one of the listed animal species and its presentation as unassembled heads, tails, paws, or other cuttings. The process of tanning or dressing is a prerequisite for entry into this category, distinguishing it from raw, untanned skins.
