Overview
This HTS classification, 4408.90.01.51, covers sheets of wood, specifically prepared for veneering, plywood, or similar laminated wood products, as well as other wood sawn lengthwise, sliced, or peeled. These wood sheets are processed to a thickness not exceeding 6 mm and may have undergone planing, sanding, splicing, or end-jointing. The "Other" designation signifies that these wood sheets do not fall under the more specific species-based categories listed as siblings.
This category distinguishes itself from sibling categories such as Ash (4408.90.01.05), Birch (4408.90.01.10), Cherry (4408.90.01.15), Maple (4408.90.01.21), and Oak (Quercus spp.) by encompassing all other wood species that do not have a dedicated subheading. Therefore, any wood veneer sheets or similar processed wood that are not explicitly listed by botanical name, but meet the general criteria of being 6 mm or less in thickness and prepared for laminated wood applications, will be classified under this residual category.
As a leaf node, 4408.90.01.51 does not have further subcategories. Its classification as "Other" implies that specific wood species not individually enumerated within the broader "Spliced or end-jointed" group (4408.90.01) are captured here. Importers and customs brokers should carefully review the species of wood to ensure it is not specifically listed elsewhere before assigning it to this "Other" classification.
