Last updated: April 2026 dataLightweight whole hides and skins of bovine and equine animals — defined by strict weight thresholds of 8 kg dried, 10 kg dry-salted, or 16 kg fresh — are a primary raw material input for the global leather goods and footwear industries. The US tariff schedule subdivides this heading across eight 10-digit lines (4101201010 through 4101207000) distinguishing cattle from equine, buffalo from other bovine, and vegetable-pretanned from non-pretanned material, with surface area (above or below 28 square feet) serving as an additional classification trigger. Brazil leads US import supply under this heading, with Canada and Colombia also among the top sources. Importers should note that the pretanning status and intended end use — upper leather, lining leather, or other — must be accurately declared to land on the correct tariff line.

Surface area is a secondary classification criterion layered on top of weight. Whole bovine hides intended for upper or lining leather that fall below 28 square feet are directed to specific tariff lines (e.g., 4101202000), while those at or above 28 square feet fall to different lines. Importers must measure both weight and area to determine the correct 10-digit code.
Yes. The US schedule separates vegetable-pretanned bovine hides (4101204000) from non-pretanned and other-pretanned material (4101205000). Because pretanning is a processing step that can affect both classification and valuation, the tanning method used by the foreign supplier should be documented on the commercial invoice.
