HS Code for Assembled furskins

Assembled furskins are classified under Harmonized System (HS) code 430230. This classification falls within Chapter 43, which pertains to furskins and artificial fur. Heading 4302 specifically covers tanned or dressed furskins, whether whole skins or pieces. Subheading 430230 is designated for furskins that have been "assembled," meaning various pieces or cuttings have been joined together to form larger units, such as plates or sacs.

Common Misclassification

Common misclassifications for assembled furskins often occur with HS code 4301 and 4303. HS 4301 covers raw furskins, which are undressed and untanned. In contrast, 430230 is for furskins that have already undergone tanning or dressing processes and have been assembled. The most frequent confusion arises with HS 4303, which covers articles of apparel, clothing accessories, and other finished articles of furskin. HS 430230 is specifically for assembled furskins that are not yet finished articles, serving as materials for further manufacturing. The distinction lies in the stage of processing and the final form of the product.
