Chapter 43: Furskins and artificial fur

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 430310 when importing or exporting articles made from furskin, such as coats, hats, or gloves. For example, a shipment of a fur-lined parka falls under this code.

This code specifically covers furskin articles that are not merely trimmed or finished but are fully constructed items like clothing and accessories. In contrast, HS-6 430320 includes articles made from artificial fur.

When dealing with furskin products, it’s essential to distinguish between genuine furskin items and those made from synthetic materials. Genuine furskin articles often have a higher value and require different documentation.

If you’re shipping furskin apparel, ensure your invoices clearly describe the products, including the type of fur and the end-use, to avoid classification issues at customs.
