4304 — Artificial fur and articles thereof
Chapter 43: Furskins and artificial fur
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 4304 when importing artificial fur products, such as synthetic fur coats or plush toys made from artificial materials. This code applies to items that mimic the look and feel of real fur but are entirely made from synthetic fibers.
When determining the correct classification, note that HS-6 430400 specifically covers artificial fur and articles made from it. If your shipment includes items like faux fur blankets or upholstery fabric, this is the appropriate code. However, if you’re dealing with genuine fur products, you’ll need to look at other headings under Chapter 43.
If your products are mixed materials, such as garments combining artificial fur with other fabrics, you may need to consult with a customs broker to ensure proper classification. The distinction between artificial and real fur is crucial, as misclassification can lead to penalties or delays.
For items that resemble fur but are not intended for clothing, such as decorative pieces or craft supplies, confirm that they fall under HS-4 4304. Always check the specific characteristics of your product to ensure accurate tariff application.
