Wet-state tanned pigskin — including wet-blue forms (4106311000) — is a specialized leather intermediate used in glove linings, shoe insoles, and sporting goods where pigskin's distinctive pore pattern and breathability are valued. Taiwan and China together account for the entirety of top US suppliers under this heading, reflecting East Asia's concentration of pork-processing and co-located tanning capacity. Importers should be aware that swine leather from China may be subject to Section 301 tariffs; classification at the correct 10-digit line is essential for accurate duty calculation.

Swine tanned skins in the wet state may be subject to Section 301 tariffs depending on the specific 10-digit HTS line and the applicable list. Given that China is a top supplier under this heading, importers should verify current Section 301 applicability for lines 4106310000 and 4106311000 before entry. A licensed customs broker can confirm the current tariff treatment and any applicable exclusions.
Pigskin leather in the wet state is primarily used by manufacturers of glove linings, shoe insoles, and sports equipment (notably American footballs and baseball gloves). Its distinctive open-pore structure provides breathability advantages over bovine leather in these applications. Importers are typically intermediate processors or manufacturers rather than end retailers.
