4412.52.41.00 - Other 🖩

This classification, HTS Code 4412.52.41.00, pertains to "Other" plywood, specifically when it falls within the broader category of plywood with at least one outer ply of nonconiferous wood. This designation is applied to plywood products that do not fit into more specific sub-classifications under the parent heading for plywood. It represents a residual category for plywood that has been manufactured with an outer layer of wood that is not from coniferous species, such as pine or fir.

The key differentiating factor for this subcategory lies in its "other" designation, meaning it captures plywood not otherwise specified within the detailed breakdown of plywood types. This often includes specialized constructions, finishes, or forms that do not align with the more narrowly defined categories. For instance, it might encompass plywood with specific structural enhancements or unique construction methods that are not explicitly listed elsewhere.

Given that this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification within 4412.52.41.00 hinges on the precise characteristics of the plywood and its adherence to the preceding classification criteria: being plywood, having at least one outer ply of nonconiferous wood, and not being covered by a more specific description within the tariff schedule. Importers and exporters should carefully review the entire hierarchy of Chapter 44, particularly heading 4412, to ensure this "other" classification is indeed the most appropriate for their goods.
