Overview
This classification, HTS Code 4407.99.02.95, encompasses "Other nonconiferous" wood that has been sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced, or peeled, and is of a thickness exceeding 6 mm. The "Other" designation at this level signifies wood that does not fall into more specific, enumerated subcategories within the broader "Other" grouping of nonconiferous woods under heading 4407.99.02. This means it includes a wide variety of nonconiferous (hardwood) species not explicitly listed, provided they meet the physical processing criteria of the heading.
The key distinction of this category from its siblings lies in its residual nature. Sibling categories like Hickory, Pecan, Walnut, and Western Red Alder are specifically named species. Therefore, any nonconiferous wood, thicker than 6 mm and processed as described, that is not one of these specifically identified species will fall under this "Other nonconiferous" classification. It serves as a catch-all for hardwood varieties not otherwise detailed at this granular level.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within HTS Code 4407.99.02.95. Classification into this code is primarily determined by the exclusion of specifically listed hardwood species and adherence to the processing and dimension requirements of heading 4407. The origin of the wood and its intended end-use are generally not determinative for classification at this level, but rather the physical form and botanical type of the wood.
