Chapter 44: Wood and articles of wood
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 441241 when importing or exporting plywood that has at least one outer layer made of tropical wood. For instance, if you're shipping a container of plywood sheets used for furniture, this code applies.
This code specifically covers laminated wood products, including plywood and veneered panels, that incorporate tropical wood. It’s important to distinguish this from HS-6 441239, which includes similar products but may not have the tropical wood requirement.
If your product is made from other types of wood or does not meet the criteria for tropical wood, you might need to consider different classifications. For example, HS-6 441210 applies to plywood made entirely from coniferous wood.
When dealing with laminated veneered lumber (LVL) that features tropical wood, this code is essential. Ensure your product descriptions clearly state the wood type to avoid misclassification.
