CITES.
The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) bans commercial international trade in specimens and parts of species listed on Appendix I — which includes the Siberian (Amur) tiger. (Note: importing the fur into the U.S. could also violate the U.S. Lacey Act, but the international treaty violated is CITES.)
