Last updated: April 2026 dataWallets, card cases, coin purses, key cases, and similar small articles designed to be carried in a pocket or handbag are classified here based on their intended carrying method and function rather than their outer surface material alone. This subheading is one of the most commercially active in the leather goods and accessories trade, covering both luxury leather wallets and mass-market synthetic alternatives. Section 301 tariffs have applied to many goods in this category from China, and the leather-versus-synthetic distinction can affect duty rates at the HTS 10-digit level, making material documentation a routine compliance requirement.

A combined phone case and wallet designed primarily as a carrying case for a phone is generally classified under phone case provisions rather than here. However, if the article is primarily a wallet or card holder that incidentally accommodates a phone, classification under this heading may be appropriate. The primary function and design intent are the controlling factors, and a binding ruling is advisable for ambiguous dual-function articles.
A manufacturer's material specification sheet identifying the outer surface material (leather, composition leather, PVC, textile, etc.) is essential, as the 10-digit HTS subheadings under this category are differentiated by outer surface material and origin. This documentation also supports any Section 301 exclusion claims or origin-shift arguments for goods with multi-country supply chains.
