Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "44" represent Wood and articles of wood.

Specifically, this chapter includes:

• Logs: Unprocessed wood.
• Wood: Wood that has undergone simple processing such as sawing, planing, and drying.
• Wood products: Various products made from wood, such as furniture, building components, packaging boxes, wooden barrels, wooden trim, and wooden frames.

Reason for classification:

The HS code system initially classifies items based on their material. Wood and its products are considered natural materials, and thus are classified under Chapter 44. This chapter was established to classify and manage different types of wood and wood products more precisely, facilitating trade statistics and tariff collection.

If you would like to know more specific HS codes, such as 4401, 4402, etc., please provide the complete code, and I will provide you with a more detailed explanation.
