HS code 4107.11 is the 6-digit subheading for leather, further prepared after tanning or crusting, including parchment-dressed leather, of bovine (including buffalo) or equine animals, without hair on, other than leather of heading 41.14, whole hides and skins, full grain, unsplit.

What HS 4107.11 covers
This HS code identifies high-quality, fully finished leather from bovine (including buffalo) or equine animals, specifically whole hides that are 'full grain' and 'unsplit.' This signifies premium leather that retains the natural surface of the hide, showcasing its unique characteristics and offering superior durability and aesthetic appeal. It has been further prepared after tanning or crusting, meaning it's ready for immediate use in manufacturing. This type of leather is highly sought after for top-tier products where the natural beauty and strength of the hide are paramount. Major exporters include countries with advanced tanning industries like Italy, Brazil, and the USA, while importers are typically luxury goods manufacturers globally, particularly in Europe and Asia, for high-end fashion, furniture, and automotive interiors.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. 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).
