Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If not specifically walnut but other hardwood species
Walnut has its own statistical suffix; other woods fall under the general 'other' category in the same heading.
If thickness exceeds 6 mm after processing
Plywood with walnut face veneer >6mm thick shifts to Chapter 44 heading for plywood.
If imported as rough sawn lumber rather than sliced veneer
Rough walnut lumber is classified under coniferous/non-coniferous sawn wood heading 4407, not thin veneers.

• Ensure accurate species labeling as Juglans spp. to avoid reclassification; provide mill certificates
• Inspect for proper thickness measurement (≤6mm) during customs to prevent duty disputes
