Overview
This category, HTS Code 4407.96.00.19, encompasses "Other" wood sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, whether or not planed, sanded, or end-jointed, with a thickness exceeding 6 mm, specifically of birch (Betula spp.). It falls under the broader classification of coniferous and non-coniferous wood lumber.
This "Other" designation serves to capture birch wood that does not fit the specific criteria of the sibling categories, 4407.96.00.11 and 4407.96.00.13. The sibling categories are designated for specific geographical origins or common trade names of birch. Therefore, this "Other" category is for birch wood where the origin or trade designation does not align with the specified North American or European/Baltic/Russian/Chinese types.
As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. The practical implication for importers and exporters is that if the birch lumber does not clearly fall under the distinct geographical sub-classifications, it will be classified here. Therefore, careful consideration of the origin and any associated trade nomenclature is crucial for accurate classification.
