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

Reason for classification:

The HS code system classifies items 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 (e.g., 4401, 4402, etc.), or the specific name and use of the item you want to classify.

Classification: Plywood, veneered sheets and similar laminated wood --> sheets, laminated sheets and strips --> other, both outer layers are coniferous wood --> other.

8-10 digit explanation: hscode: 4412597000 classification: Plywood, veneered sheets and similar laminated wood products --> sheets, laminated sheets and strips --> other, both outer layers made of coniferous wood --> plywood --> not surface covered, or surface covered with transparent material that does not obscure the surface layer's texture or marking --> surface layer is Scots pine (Pinus silvestris) explanation: This HS code corresponds to sheets, laminated sheets, and strips with a surface layer made of Scots pine (Pinus silvestris), which are not surface covered or covered with transparent material that does not obscure the texture or marking of the surface layer. These are classified as a sub-item of plywood, veneered sheets, and similar laminated wood products. The key points are the type of surface wood (Scots pine) and the surface treatment (uncovered or transparently covered without obscuring the texture).

Examples of products: * Plywood with a surface layer of Scots pine * Laminated wood sheets with a Scots pine veneer * Strips of laminated wood with a Scots pine surface * Transparent-coated plywood using Scots pine as the outer layer * Decorative wooden panels with a Scots pine finish
