4419.19.10.00 - Forks and spoons

This HTS subheading, 4419.19.10.00, specifically classifies wooden forks and spoons, provided they are made of bamboo. This category is intended for everyday eating utensils fashioned from this particular fast-growing grass. The classification emphasizes the material of bamboo and the specific function as forks and spoons.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 4419.19.90.00, which covers "Other" bamboo tableware and kitchenware. While 4419.19.10.00 is exclusively for forks and spoons, the "Other" category would encompass a broader range of bamboo items used in food preparation and service that are not forks or spoons, such as bamboo bowls, plates, chopsticks, or spatulas.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 4419.19.10.00 is definitive for bamboo forks and spoons, ensuring distinct treatment from other wooden utensils or bamboo kitchenware not fitting this precise description.
