HS Code 4106.22 – Tanned or crust hides and skins; of goats or kids, without hair on, whether or not split, but not further prepared, in the dry state (crust)

HS code 4106.22 is the 6-digit subheading for tanned or crust hides and skins, of goats or kids, without hair on, whether or not split, but not further prepared, in the dry state (crust). It is used for goat crust leather for gloves, kidskin crust for shoe uppers, goat crust for garment lining, bookbinding goat crust and leather for small leather goods.

What HS 4106.22 covers

This HS code encompasses tanned or crust hides and skins derived from goats or kids, specifically those without hair and in a dry, semi-finished state known as 'crust.' These hides have undergone initial tanning but require further processing like dyeing, softening, and finishing before becoming usable leather. They are highly sought after in the global market for their fine grain and flexibility. Major exporters typically include countries with significant goat farming and tanning industries, such as India, Pakistan, and China. Importers are often European nations like Italy, Spain, and France, where they are transformed into high-value finished leather for luxury goods, garments, and footwear. Key things to know include the 'crust' state, which signifies an intermediate product, and the specific animal origin (goat/kid) which dictates its texture and end-use applications.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
