Overview

This HTS classification, 4409.22.05.15, specifically designates Jatoba (Hymenaea spp.), commonly known as Brazilian Cherry. This category encompasses wood that has been continuously shaped along its ends, which may also be shaped along its edges or faces. The shaping can include processes such as tongue-and-groove, rebating, chamfering, V-jointing, beading, molding, or rounding. Furthermore, the wood in this category may be planed, sanded, or end-jointed. The material is of tropical wood and is specifically end-matched for flooring applications.

This classification distinguishes Jatoba from other tropical hardwoods that fall under similar broad categories but are identified by their distinct botanical names and common trade names. For example, siblings such as Ipé (4409.22.05.20), Santos mahogany (4409.22.05.35), and Cumaru (4409.22.05.45) are classified separately due to their unique species, properties, and market recognition, even though they share the general characteristics of shaped tropical wood flooring. The inclusion of "Other" (4409.22.05.60) at this level captures any remaining tropical wood flooring that does not fit the specific species enumerated.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 4409.22.05.15. Classification decisions at this level rely on the precise identification of the wood species as Jatoba and its conformance to the described characteristics of continuously shaped, end-matched tropical wood flooring.
