About heading 4101

Raw hides and skins of bovine (including buffalo) or equine animals (fresh, or salted, dried, limed, pickled or otherwise preserved, but not tanned, parchment-dressed or further prepared), whether or not dehaired or split

Heading 4101 covers raw hides and skins of bovine animals (including buffalo) and equine animals that have been preserved but not tanned, parchment-dressed or further prepared. The heading is split first by weight of whole hides (4101.20 for small whole hides, 4101.50 for whole hides over 16 kg) and by "other" pieces such as butts, bends and bellies in 4101.90. Within each group the lines separate not pretanned from other (including vegetable pretanned) material and separate bovine from equine and buffalo.
