Notes for Chapter 41 — Raw hides and skins (other than furskins) and leather
Notes
1. This Chapter does not cover:
(a) Parings or similar waste, of raw hides or skins (heading 05.11);
(b) Birdskins or parts of birdskins, with their feathers or down, of heading 05.05 or 67.01; or
(c) Hides or skins, with the hair or wool on, raw, tanned or dressed (Chapter 43); the following are, however, to be classified in Chapter 41, namely, raw hides and skins with the hair or wool on, of bovine animals (including buffalo), of equine animals, of sheep or lambs (except Astrakhan, Broadtail, Caracul, Persian or similar lambs, Indian, Chinese, Mongolian or Tibetan lambs), of goats or kids (except Yemen, Mongolian or Tibetan goats and kids), of swine (including peccary), of chamois, of gazelle, of camels (including dromedaries), of reindeer, of elk, of deer, of roebucks or of dogs.
2. (A) Headings 41.04 to 41.06 do not cover hides and skins which have undergone a tanning (including pre-tanning) process which is reversible (headings 41.01 to 41.03, as the case may be).
(B) For the purposes of headings 41.04 to 41.06, the term “crust” includes hides and skins that have been retanned, coloured or fat-liquored (stuffed) prior to drying.
3. Throughout the Nomenclature the expression “composition leather” means only substances of the kind referred to in heading 41.15.

2024: as reported by partner countries
Vietnam has not filed 2024 yet, so this is rebuilt from what its 19 largest trading partners reported about trade with Vietnam (85% of Vietnam's trade). Not the same measure as the figures above — compare it only with the 2023 row beside it.
| 2023 | 2024 | Change | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Exports | 13 mn USD | 10 mn USD | -21% |
| Imports | 60 mn USD | 80 mn USD | +33% |
- Exports 2023: partners reported 13 mn USD where Vietnam reported 6 mn USD — 2.33× on this measure.
- Imports 2023: partners reported 60 mn USD where Vietnam reported 70 mn USD — 0.86× on this measure.
The gap is not a rounding difference: goods re-exported through Hong Kong or Singapore, a different heading chosen by the importing customs, and origin-based versus destination-based attribution all pull the two measures apart. Use the year-on-year change, not the level.

Corresponding US tariff lines
Six digits are identical worldwide under the HS Convention, so 4104.49 is the same subheading in both schedules. What differs is how each country splits it: below are the 8 US lines under 4104.49.
| US HTS code | Description | General duty |
|---|---|---|
| 4104.49.10.20 | In the dry state (crust) › Other › Whole bovine leather, of a unit surface area not exceeding 28 square feet (2.6 m2) › Upper leather; lining leather › Upper leather(m2) | Free |
| 4104.49.10.40 | In the dry state (crust) › Other › Whole bovine leather, of a unit surface area not exceeding 28 square feet (2.6 m2) › Upper leather; lining leather › Lining leather(m2) | Free |

| 4104.49.50.00 | In the dry state (crust) › Other › Other › Other › Other(m2) | 3.3% |
Additional Chapter 99 duties apply to goods of Vietnam
- 9903.02.69 +20% — The duty provided in the applicable subheading + 20%
- 9903.05.84 +12.5% — The duty provided in the applicable subheading + 12.5%
These are added to the General duty above, not in place of it. Whether a given article falls inside their scope — and the exclusion lists — is set out in the U.S. notes to Chapter 99, which are prose and not machine-readable, so this site does not assign them per code. Check the official schedule before quoting a landed cost.

The General column is the rate for Vietnam: the Special column lists US preference programmes (GSP, USMCA, KORUS…) and Vietnam is in none of them.

For reference only — classification on import is decided by US Customs, and anti-dumping, countervailing and Section 232/301 measures are not covered here.
Corresponding Japanese tariff lines
4104.49 is the same subheading in both schedules (six digits are identical worldwide under the HS Convention). Vietnamese goods can enter Japan under four parallel preference routes — the columns below — and the exporter picks whichever C/O gives the better rate.
| Line | Description | MFN | VJEPA | AJCEP | CPTPP | RCEP |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4104.49-110 | Other › 1 Tanned (including retanned) but not further prepared › (1) Chrome tanned leather(SM/KG) | Free | Free | Free | Free | Free |
| 4104.49 | Other › 1 Tanned (including retanned) but not further prepared › (2) Other | 60% | — | — | — | — |
| 4104.49 | Other › 2 Other › (1)Dyed or coloured | 60% | — | — | — | — |
| 4104.49 | Other › 2 Other › (2)Other | 60% | — | — | — | — |
MFN is the lowest of the schedule's General/Temporary/WTO columns (hover to see all three). The preference columns require the matching certificate of origin; an em dash means that agreement gives no preference for the line.
