Classification of dressed fur pieces under HS 4302.20
Dressed fur pieces, such as heads, tails, and paws, are classified under HS code 4302.20. This classification applies to pieces or cuttings that have undergone tanning or dressing but have not yet been assembled into larger plates, mats, or garments. Heading 4302 covers tanned or dressed furskins, and subheading 4302.20 specifically isolates the smaller components and scraps that are often used for trim, small accessories, or lining. The dressing process involves treating the skin to preserve it and make it flexible, which distinguishes these items from raw furskins. According to the Chapter 43 notes, pieces and cuttings of furskin that are not assembled are specifically directed to this code. If these pieces were sewn together into a rectangular shape, they would move to 4302.30. The classification is based on the state of the material (dressed) and the form (unassembled pieces/cuttings).

Codes often confused with 4302.20
Common mistake. These items are often confused with raw furskins under HS code 4301.80 if the tanning process is not recognized. They are also frequently misclassified under 4303.90 (articles of apparel) if they are mistaken for finished accessories like keychains. Furthermore, if the pieces are assembled into "plates" or "crosses," they must be classified under 4302.30.

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).
