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: Simply processed wood, such as sawn wood, wood boards, wood planks, etc.
• Wood products: Various products made from wood, such as furniture, construction components, packaging crates, wooden barrels, wood trim, wooden frames, etc.

Reason for classification:

The HS code system classifies goods primarily by material. Wood and its products are natural materials, so they are classified under Chapter 44. The purpose of this chapter is to group all wood-related goods together for management and statistical purposes.

If you want to know more specific classifications, please provide more detailed HS codes (e.g., 4401, 4402, etc.), or provide the specific name and use of the item you want to classify.
