4412.33.06.70 - Other

This classification, HTS 4412.33.06.70, specifically designates "Other" plywood and similar laminated wood products that meet the preceding criteria but are not classified under any more specific subheadings. These panels are composed entirely of sheets of wood, excluding bamboo, where each ply does not exceed 6 mm in thickness. Crucially, the product must feature at least one outer ply of specific nonconiferous hardwoods, including but not limited to alder, ash, beech, birch, cherry, chestnut, elm, eucalyptus, hickory, horse chestnut, lime, maple, oak, plane tree, poplar and aspen, robinia, tulipwood, or walnut.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, HTS 4412.33.06.65 ("Wood flooring"), is essential. While both fall under the umbrella of plywood and similar laminated wood with specific face ply characteristics, this classification excludes finished flooring products. Goods classified here are intended for general use as panels or components, not as ready-to-install floor coverings.

As HTS 4412.33.06.70 is a leaf node, it has no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under this code lies entirely on fulfilling the stringent material and construction requirements outlined in its hierarchical path, ensuring that the plywood is not surface covered, or if covered, the material is clear or transparent and does not obscure the grain, texture, or markings of the face ply, and that it is not specifically designed or presented as wood flooring.
