Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 440719 when importing or exporting coniferous wood products like cedar or larch that are sawn or peeled and exceed 6mm in thickness. For example, a shipment of sawn larch boards for construction would fall under this code.

This code specifically covers coniferous species other than pine, fir, or spruce, differentiating it from HS-6 440720, which pertains to those specific types of wood. If you're dealing with cedar, for instance, this is the right classification.

When classifying wood products, it's crucial to note the thickness. This HS-6 applies to wood that is over 6mm thick, while thinner products might fall under different codes. Always check the specifications of your shipment to ensure proper classification.

If you're unsure whether your wood product qualifies, consider its end-use and processing. Products like planed cedar boards or sanded larch panels are included, but make sure they meet the thickness requirement.
