Overview
This classification covers rough wood specifically intended for the production of wood pulp. This includes logs and timbers that have not undergone significant processing beyond debarking or roughly squaring. The primary characteristic is their suitability and intended use as raw material for papermaking and other pulp-based products.
Distinguished from its siblings, this category specifically targets pulpwood, whereas 4403.98.00.28 encompasses poles, piles, and posts, which are typically used for structural or support purposes and may have different dimensional or quality requirements. Similarly, 4403.98.00.95 captures "Other" rough wood not specifically classified as pulpwood, poles, piles, or posts within this eucalyptus subgroup.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification under 4403.98.00.23 is final for rough eucalyptus wood whose form and quality clearly indicate its intended use in pulp production, and which does not fit the definitions of other more specific classifications at this level.
