Mohair (5102196030) is classified separately from other unprocessed fine hair (5102196060), while fur prepared for hatters' use (5102198000) and residual categories round out the group.

Angora goat hair (mohair) that is not carded, combed, or otherwise processed falls under HTS 5102196030, a dedicated line. Other fine animal hair that is similarly unprocessed but not mohair and not cashmere is captured under 5102196060. The distinction matters because mohair has historically carried different duty treatment and is subject to specific fiber-identity documentation requirements.
Importers are generally expected to provide a commercial invoice specifying the animal species and fiber type, along with a certificate of origin. For mohair specifically, trade associations and buyers may also require fiber-diameter test results (in microns) to confirm the 'fine' classification and to support downstream textile labeling compliance under the Wool Products Labeling Act.
