Leather product HS codes for Israel.
India’s eight-digit HSN or ITC(HS) code is an export-side classification; Israel uses its own national tariff subdivisions for import clearance.
The directory covers eight product groups. The duty table below currently provides the jacket and handbag lines. Other national codes and rates must be checked against the actual material and construction; a missing rate does not mean zero duty.

Leather jackets ship under HS 4203.10 and leather handbags under HS 4202.21. The six-digit subheading is the same in every customs schedule; Israel extends it to its own national tariff line, and that line sets the rate and the origin rule the importer has to meet.

Questions
Classification and trade for Israel: questions.
Anything not answered here is covered in the 30-minute product review.
Which HS code do leather jackets from India ship to Israel under?
Leather jackets and other leather apparel are classified under HS 4203.10. Hide Fashion declares India ITC(HS) 42031010 (jackets and jerseys) on the export documents. The importer confirms Israel’s national tariff line for that subheading before the landed-cost quotation.
Which HS code covers leather bags shipped to Israel?
Leather handbags fall under HS 4202.21. Briefcases, executive cases and travel cases fall under HS 4202.11, and other leather bags and cases under HS 4202.91. The outer surface material and the construction can move a bag between lines, so the line is confirmed against the approved sample, not the sketch.
Does Hide Fashion prepare the HS classification paperwork for Israel?
Yes. The HS line, the origin evidence and the export documents are prepared with each order and matched to the approved sample, so the classification your importer declares in Israel is the one the factory shipped against.
What tariff line and duty rate does Israel apply to leather jackets from India?
Israel classifies leather jackets under 4203100000/5 in the Israeli Customs and Purchase Tax Tariff, 10 digits. The published schedule rate is Free (0%, MFN). No agreement needed: the MFN rate is Free and the line carries no purchase tax. Landed cost is CIF plus 18% VAT. Import tax: 18% VAT. The applied rate is confirmed against the importer’s line and origin documents before Hide Fashion issues a landed-cost quotation.
What is the import duty on leather handbags from India into Israel?
For leather handbags under HS 4202.21, the recorded Israel national line is 4202210000/4. The schedule rate is Free (0%, MFN). No agreement needed: the MFN rate is Free and the line carries no purchase tax. Landed cost is CIF plus 18% VAT. Import tax: 18% VAT. This handbag line does not automatically cover briefcases, duffles or wallets; confirm the product and current treatment with the importer.
Is Indian HSN 42031010 the import code for leather jackets in Israel?
HSN 42031010 is the Indian export classification used by Hide Fashion for jackets and jerseys. The shared six-digit HS subheading is 4203.10 (420310). Israel applies its own national subdivisions, so the Indian eight-digit code must not simply be copied into the destination’s import declaration.
