Customs Classification and Tariff Summary for Biomass Wood Briquettes
HS CODE: 4401320000
Product Description:
- Wood briquettes (agglomerated sawdust and wood waste)
Tariff Breakdown:
- Base Tariff Rate: 0.0%
- Additional Tariff: 25.0%
- Special Tariff after April 11, 2025: 30.0%

Proactive Advice: - Confirm the material composition (e.g., is it 100% wood or mixed with other materials?). - Ensure certifications (e.g., for biomass fuel or environmental compliance) are in place if exporting to regulated markets. - Check if customs documentation (e.g., invoice, packing list) clearly states the product as "wood briquettes" to avoid misclassification.
HS CODE: 4401310000
