Overview
This HTS subcategory, 4407.19.00.69, encompasses coniferous wood that has been sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced, or peeled, with a thickness exceeding 6 mm. Crucially, these woods have undergone further processing beyond rough sawn or chipped, including planing, sanding, or end-jointing. This category specifically applies to Western red cedar that has *not* been treated with preservatives or fire retardants.
The distinction between this category and its sibling, 4407.19.00.68 (Rough), lies in the level of finishing. While "Rough" covers wood with a less refined surface, this subcategory includes wood that has been planed for a smoother finish, sanded to remove imperfections, or end-jointed for creating longer lengths. Both categories fall under "Other" coniferous wood within the broader "Other" classification for wood not otherwise specified, and both are of Western red cedar.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification decision hinges on confirming the species (Western red cedar), the processing method (sawn/chipped lengthwise, sliced, or peeled to over 6mm thickness, with planing, sanding, or end-jointing), and the absence of chemical treatment. This ensures accurate tariff application for finished or semi-finished Western red cedar lumber not designated as rough.
