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).
Classification of crust kidskin under HS 4106.22
Crust kidskin is classified under HS code 4106.22, which specifically covers tanned or crust hides and skins of goats or kids. The term "kidskin" refers to the leather produced from young goats, known for its soft texture and fine grain. Under the Harmonized System, this classification is restricted to skins that have been tanned and dried (crust) but have not yet undergone further preparation such as dyeing or finishing. The skins must be without hair. This stage of processing is vital for international trade as it allows for the stable transport of the material before it is customized for specific luxury goods or footwear. The classification is determined by the animal origin (Capra hircus) and the specific processing stage (tanned, de-haired, and dried).

Codes often confused with 4106.22
Common mistake. Kidskin is often confused with HS code 4106.21, which applies to goat skins in the wet state (wet-blue). Furthermore, if the kidskin has been further prepared after the crusting stage—such as being dyed through or having a surface coating applied—it must be classified under HS code 4113.10. Importers must verify if the leather is truly in the "crust" state or if it has reached the "finished" leather stage.

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).
