4414.90.00.00 - Other

This HTS classification, 4414.90.00.00, encompasses wooden frames for paintings, photographs, mirrors, or similar decorative or functional objects that are not specifically classified under other headings. This residual category is designed to capture a broad range of wooden framing not made from tropical wood. Examples include frames made from common woods like pine, oak, maple, or composite wood materials, intended for a wide array of applications, from fine art display to everyday picture framing.

The primary distinction for this category lies in its exclusion of frames made from tropical woods. The sibling category, 4414.10.00.00, is exclusively for wooden frames constructed from woods originating from tropical regions. Therefore, if the wood type is identifiable and originates from a tropical species, it would fall under 4414.10.00.00. If the wood is non-tropical, or if the frame is made from composite wood materials where the tropical wood content is not dominant or identifiable, then this category, 4414.90.00.00, would be the appropriate classification.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. The classification is determined by the material of the frame and its intended use as a decorative or protective border for visual media or reflective surfaces. The "Other" designation signifies that it serves as a catch-all for wooden frames that do not meet the specific criteria of any other subordinate or sibling categories within heading 4414.
