HS code for Crust lambskin: 4105.30
Tanned or crust skins, of sheep or lambs, without wool on, whether or not split, but not further prepared, in the dry state (crust).
Classification of crust lambskin under HS 4105.30
HS code 4105.30 is the specific designation for tanned or crust skins of sheep or lambs. This classification is part of Chapter 41, which deals with raw hides, skins, and leather. To qualify for this code, the skins must have the wool removed and must be in the dry state, commonly referred to as "crust." The crusting process involves tanning the skin to stabilize the collagen fibers and then drying it. This code excludes skins that have been further prepared after tanning, such as those that have been dyed, printed, or given a patent finish. Lambskin is particularly valued for its suppleness, and the 4105.30 classification ensures that the material is recognized as a semi-processed commodity rather than a finished leather product or a raw skin.

Codes often confused with 4105.30
Common mistake. The most frequent misclassification occurs with HS code 4105.10, which covers sheep and lamb skins in the wet state. Additionally, if the lambskin still has the wool on, it must be classified under Chapter 43 (Furskins). If the skin has been further prepared after crusting, it moves to HS code 4112.00. Distinguishing between "crust" and "finished" leather is essential for correct duty application.

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).
