Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If thickness exceeds 5mm
MDF over 5mm thick shifts to 4411.13 subheading while keeping medium density classification.
If laminated or veneered
Surface-covered MDF (paper, foil, etc.) moves to 4411.92; oil treatment exception doesn't apply.
If density under 0.45 g/cm³
Low density fiberboard (LDF) falls under 4412.10, differentiated by compression density specs.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm MDF density (0.45-0.80 g/cm³) via lab test; provide certificate if requested by CBP
• Ensure no paint, foil, or veneer exceeds 'oil treatment'; document production process
• Avoid misclassification as particleboard (4411.11) by proving fiber matting and hot-pressing method
