HS code for leather wallets
Leather wallets usually ship under 4202.31. Here is the full US code, the duty, the customs description to use, and what would make it a different code.
Based on the example: “Leather bifold wallet” (leather).
Why this code
A bifold wallet with a full-grain leather outer surface is a wallet that fits in a pocket, so it falls under the leather wallet line for pocket and handbag articles. Other leather wallets from past rulings were classified the same way.
Official tariff textTrunks, suitcases, vanity cases, attache cases, briefcases, school satchels, spectacle cases, binocular cases, camera cases, musical instrument cases, gun cases, holsters and similar containers; traveling bags, insulated food or beverage bags, toiletry bags, knapsacks and backpacks, handbags, shopping bags, wallets, purses, map cases, cigarette cases, tobacco pouches, tool bags, sports bags, bottle cases, jewelry boxes, powder cases, cutlery cases and similar containers, of leather or of composition leather, of sheeting of plastics, of textile materials, of vulcanized fiber or of paperboard, or wholly or mainly covered with such materials or with paper > Articles of a kind normally carried in the pocket or in the handbag > With outer surface of leather or of composition leather > Other
When it would be a different code
- 4202.31.3000 If the leather is reptile leather (e.g., snakeskin or crocodile), not ordinary cowhide or full-grain leather.
- 4202.91.9090 If the item is not a pocket-size wallet but a larger other leather container not normally carried in a pocket or handbag.

Shipping leather wallets to the EU
Use the same 6-digit code, 4202.31. Since 1 July 2026 the EU charges a flat €3 duty for each different type of item in a parcel worth €150 or less, so leather wallets in one order add €3 however many are in the box.
