Further-Prepared Goat & Kidskin Leather, Hair-Off

Morocco leather — traditionally a vegetable-tanned, grain-finished goatskin — would fall under heading 411310 if it has been further prepared after tanning (i.e., finished beyond the crust stage) and is hair-off. The specific 10-digit line depends on whether it is parchment-dressed (4113103000), otherwise non-fancy further prepared (4113103550), or fancy (4113106000). Importers should confirm the processing stage and surface treatment with the supplier.

While finished goat leather is not subject to USDA FSIS or APHIS admissibility review, importers should verify that the goods are not derived from species protected under CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species). Certain exotic goat-related species may require CITES documentation. For standard domestic goat and kid leather, no special import permit is required, but country-of-origin documentation and accurate species identification remain important for correct classification and any applicable trade-remedy review. Consult a licensed customs broker to confirm current admissibility requirements for your specific shipment.
