Overview
This HTS classification, 4418.73.20.00, specifically covers assembled flooring panels of bamboo or with a top layer of bamboo that are intended for mosaic floors and meet the criterion of having a face ply exceeding 6 millimeters in thickness. These are finished flooring units designed for installation in a mosaic pattern, where smaller pieces are arranged to form a decorative design. The emphasis on the face ply thickness is a key defining characteristic for this particular sub-classification within the broader category of bamboo flooring.
This category is distinguished from its sibling, 4418.73.30.00, "Other," by its specific inclusion of the "for mosaic floors" criterion and the face ply thickness requirement. While the sibling category would encompass other bamboo assembled flooring panels not designated for mosaic use or not meeting the thickness specification, this code is reserved for those precisely matching the mosaic floor application and the specified ply thickness.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 4418.73.20.00 relies solely on fulfilling the outlined conditions: being an assembled flooring panel, incorporating bamboo as specified, being intended for mosaic floor applications, and possessing a face ply measuring more than 6 mm in thickness. This ensures that goods accurately reflecting these specific attributes are grouped together for customs purposes.
