HS-6 · Subheading
441193
Fibreboard (other than MDF) of a density exceeding 0.5g/cm3 but not 0.8g/cm3, of wood or other ligneous materials, bonded or not with resins or other organic substances
Heading 4411 — Fibreboard of wood or other ligneous materials, whether or not bonded with resins or other organic substances
Chapter 44: Wood and articles of wood
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 441193 when importing or exporting fibreboard made from wood or other ligneous materials, with a density between 0.5g/cm³ and 0.8g/cm³. For instance, if you're shipping a batch of engineered wood panels used in furniture, this code applies.
This code specifically covers fibreboard that is not medium-density fibreboard (MDF). If your product has a density exceeding 0.5g/cm³ but does not reach 0.8g/cm³, it fits here. In contrast, HS-6 441192 would apply to fibreboard with a lower density, while HS-6 441194 covers those with a density above 0.8g/cm³.
Fibreboard under this code can be bonded with resins or other organic substances, making it suitable for various applications, including construction and furniture manufacturing. Understanding the density is crucial for correct classification.
When deciding on the right HS code, consider the product's density and bonding materials. If you're unsure whether your fibreboard qualifies under this code, reviewing product specifications or consulting with a customs broker can clarify your options.
