Last updated: April 2026 dataHeavyweight whole hides and skins exceeding 16 kg โ the standard weight range for mature cattle โ are the dominant raw material for full-grain and corrected-grain leather destined for automotive upholstery, heavy footwear, and industrial belting. Eight 10-digit lines (4101501010 through 4101507000) separate cattle from other bovine, buffalo from non-buffalo, equine from bovine, and vegetable-pretanned from other pretanned material, with the 28-square-foot area threshold again splitting upper/lining leather lines. Canada and Mexico are the leading US suppliers under this heading, reflecting the proximity of large North American cattle slaughter operations to US tanneries. Importers sourcing from Brazil should verify pretanning documentation carefully, as misclassification between the vegetable-pretanned and non-pretanned lines is a recurring audit issue.

Cattle refers specifically to domesticated Bos taurus and Bos indicus animals, while 'other bovine' captures non-cattle bovines such as water buffalo when classified as whole hides over 16 kg but not meeting the buffalo-specific line criteria. The species of origin should be stated on the commercial invoice to support the correct line selection.
Raw bovine and equine hides under heading 4101 are generally not subject to Section 301 or antidumping/countervailing duty orders as of recent trade remedy schedules, but importers should verify current CBP guidance and any applicable exclusions, as trade remedy coverage can change. Consulting a licensed customs broker before shipment is advisable.
