More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If qualifying as blockboard with lumber core
Solid wood core strips between veneers distinguish blockboard from particle construction.
If cellular wood panels for insulation
Honeycomb or foam-core panels for sound/lightweight uses classify separately.
If containing bamboo as principal ligneous material
Chapter notes specify bamboo-dominant boards under other ligneous materials subheading.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include tongue-and-groove dimension specs in commercial invoice for classification confirmation
• Certify sanded surface flatness (AA grade) to meet underlayment performance standards
• Stack with separators to prevent telegraphic transfer imprints on smooth faces
