If meets exact briquette definition with proper cubiform shape
Legal note defines 4401.32 specifically for briquettes >25mm from any wood waste, potentially shifting from 'other' category.
If not agglomerated, sold as loose wood chips/particles
Non-agglomerated wood waste/chips from non-coniferous species classify under 4401.21, changing from agglomerated forms.
If for agglomerated forms from temperate non-coniferous woods
4401.39.41 covers specific temperate species agglomerates, while .42 is residual 'other' category.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Measure briquette dimensions precisely; >25mm cross-section disqualifies from pellet classification—retain production specs
• Declare exact wood species mix; 'other' non-coniferous waste justifies 4401.39.42 over coniferous headings
• Ensure no chemical additives beyond minimal binder; residue analysis prevents reclassification as waste under Chapter 36
