Six digits is as far as the international nomenclature goes, and it is the same six digits in every country that applies the Harmonized System. Your destination adds further digits of its own, and the rate lives on that national line — which is why the US lines below run to eight and ten digits, and why the lookups go to each authority's own tariff.

US national lines under 4301.10
The United States subdivides this subheading into 3 lines. They share a duty rate, so the classification below the subheading affects reporting rather than the amount.
| Line | Description | General | Preferential |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4301.10.00 | Of mink, whole, with or without head, tail or paws | Free | — |
| 4301.10.00.10 | Wild | Free stated on 43011000 | — |
| 4301.10.00.20 | Other | Free stated on 43011000 | — |
A blank General cell means the line states no rate of its own and takes the one above it — the line it is stated on is named, so the figure can be checked where it actually appears. Preferential rates are listed with the programme codes that grant them; the schedule offering a rate is not the same as your goods qualifying for it.
Preferential rates for 4301.10
No preference programme applies to these lines for any origin — the general rate is the rate, wherever the goods come from. That is worth knowing: there is nothing to claim here, so no certificate of origin will reduce the duty.
What chapter 43 excludes
A subheading's wording does not decide a classification — the legal notes do. These are the notes that push goods out of this chapter even when the description seems to fit.
2. This chapter does not cover:
- (a) Birdskins or parts of birdskins, with their feathers or down (heading 0505 or 6701);
- (b) Raw hides or skins, with the hair or wool on, of chapter 41 (see note 1(c) to that chapter);
- (c) Gloves, mittens and mitts consisting of leather and furskin or of leather and artificial fur (heading 4203);
- (d) Articles of chapter 64;
- (e) Headgear or parts thereof of chapter 65; or
- (f) Articles of chapter 95 (for example, toys, games, sports equipment).
5. Throughout the tariff schedule the expression "artificial fur" means any imitation of furskin consisting of wool, hair or other fibers gummed or sewn on to leather, woven fabric or other materials, but does not include imitation furskins obtained by weaving or knitting (generally, heading 5801 or 6001).
