Overview
This classification covers sheets of wood, specifically walnut (Juglans spp.), prepared for use in veneering, plywood, or similar laminated wood products. These sheets are produced by sawing, slicing, or peeling wood and can be further processed through planing, sanding, splicing, or end-jointing, as long as their thickness does not exceed 6 mm. The defining characteristic of this category is the species of wood – walnut – which distinguishes it from other wood species at this level of detail.
Distinction from sibling categories is based on the specific hardwood species. For instance, while other entries might cover oak, maple, or cherry, this particular code is exclusively for walnut veneer or prepared wood sheets derived from the Juglans genus. This precise identification is crucial for accurate tariff application and trade data reporting, ensuring that the unique properties and origins of walnut are correctly recognized.
As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of walnut veneer or prepared wood sheets is concluded at this point, relying on the specific inclusion of walnut as the differentiating factor from its siblings. Any further breakdown would be based on specific end-use or processing details not captured at this granular level.
