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 planks, wood beams, etc.
• Wood products: Various products made from wood, such as furniture, building components, packaging boxes, wooden barrels, wood trim, wooden frames, etc.

Reason for classification:

The HS code system classifies goods based on their 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 (such as 4401, 4402, etc.), or the specific name and use of the item you want to classify.

The first four digits of the HS code are 4412.

8-10 digit explanation:

HS code: 4412521050
Classification: Plywood, veneered sheets, and similar laminated wood products — Blocks, panels, and strips — Other, with at least one outer layer of non-coniferous wood — Plywood — Not surfaced, or surfaced with transparent materials that do not obscure the grain or markings of the plywood — Surface layer of birch (Betula spp.) — Other

Explanation: This HS code corresponds to plywood with a birch (Betula spp.) surface layer that is not surfaced or surfaced with transparent materials that do not obscure the grain or markings of the plywood. It belongs to the sub-category of blocks, panels, and strips with non-coniferous outer layers. The difference from 4412521030 is that 4412521050 does not require the surface layer to be unsurfaced, allowing for surface coverage with transparent materials that do not obscure the texture.

Examples of products: * Birch plywood for furniture manufacturing * Birch-faced laminated wood panels for interior decoration * Birch veneered sheets for cabinetry * Non-coniferous wood laminated panels for construction purposes * Birch surface laminated boards for packaging materials
