4401.11.00.00 - Coniferous

This HTS category, 4401.11.00.00, specifically covers fuel wood derived from coniferous species. It encompasses wood in various raw forms suitable for burning, including logs, billets, twigs, faggots, or similar preparations. The key characteristic for classification here is the botanical origin of the wood; it must be from trees belonging to coniferous families, such as pine, fir, spruce, or cedar.

This classification is distinct from its sibling category, 4401.12.00.00 (Nonconiferous), which covers fuel wood from deciduous or other non-coniferous tree species. The determination between these two categories hinges solely on the identification of the wood as either coniferous or non-coniferous. The physical form and intended use as fuel are common to both sibling categories, making the species identification the primary differentiator.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 4401.11.00.00. Therefore, classification at this level is definitive and requires a straightforward determination of whether the fuel wood is of coniferous origin. Examples of goods falling under this code include bundles of pine branches for firewood, split fir logs intended for burning, or even large coniferous wood waste pieces classified as fuel wood due to their form and intended use.
