4407.11.00.53 - Other

This classification, HTS 4407.11.00.53, covers "Other" coniferous wood of pine species (Pinus spp.), sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, with a thickness exceeding 6 mm, which has not undergone any treatment. This category is specifically for pine lumber that does not fit into the "Rough" category (HTS 4407.11.00.52) because it has undergone further processing beyond initial sawing or chipping.

The key distinction from its sibling category, "Rough" pine lumber, lies in the degree of processing. While "Rough" pine lumber is essentially the initial product of sawing or chipping, this "Other" category encompasses pine lumber that has been planed, sanded, or end-jointed. These finishing processes, while not considered "treatment" in the sense of preservation or modification, differentiate it from the raw, unfinished state covered by the "Rough" classification.

As a leaf node in the HTS, this category represents the most granular classification for this specific type of pine lumber. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the lumber meets all preceding criteria: being coniferous, of pine species, sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, exceeding 6 mm in thickness, and having undergone finishing processes such as planing, sanding, or end-jointing, without having received any form of treatment.
