4410 — Particle board, oriented strand board (OSB) and similar board (e.g. waferboard) of wood or other ligneous materials, whether or not agglomerated with resins or other organic binding substances
Chapter 44: Wood and articles of wood
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 4410 when importing products like particle board or oriented strand board (OSB) made from wood or similar materials. For instance, if you're shipping a container of OSB panels for construction, this is the correct classification.
Choosing between the HS-6 lines under 4410 depends on the specific type of board. If your product is made from wood and includes resin, you’ll likely use 441011 for particle board or 441012 for OSB. If it’s a different type of board made from wood, consider 441019.
If your shipment consists of boards made from materials other than wood, you should classify it under 441090. This includes products like particle board made from bamboo or other ligneous materials, ensuring you select the right subheading for compliance.
