Description

Overview

HTS code 4407 classifies wood that has been processed beyond simple cutting. This category specifically includes wood sawn or chipped lengthwise, as well as sliced or peeled wood. Importantly, these materials can be further processed by planing, sanding, or end-jointing. The defining physical characteristic for inclusion in this heading is that the wood must exceed 6 mm in thickness. This covers a wide range of lumber and wood products ready for further manufacturing or direct use in construction and other industries.

Distinguishing HTS 4407 from its sibling categories requires understanding the level of processing. For instance, categories at lower levels might cover rough logs or basic timber forms, whereas 4407 focuses on wood that has undergone lengthwise processing and meets a minimum thickness. Its placement within Section IX, Chapter 44, indicates its membership within the broader classification of "Wood and Articles of Wood," differentiating it from other material sectors such as live animals (Chapter 01) or mineral products.

This heading is further subdivided to provide more granular classification based on the type of wood. The primary subcategories include: "Coniferous," which refers to wood from cone-bearing trees like pine or spruce; "Of tropical wood," encompassing species originating from tropical regions; and "Other," for all remaining wood types not falling into the preceding categories. These distinctions are crucial for applying specific duty rates and trade regulations associated with different timber species.
