Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If surface-covered with opaque laminate or veneer
Surface coverings that obscure grain move to different subheading under 4412.31.40, changing duty structure.
If outer plies are non-tropical hardwoods like birch or poplar
Lack of tropical wood outer ply shifts to 'other wood' plywood category excluding specified tropical species.
If imported as reconstructed wood panels rather than sheet plywood
Reconstituted wood products from agglomerated particles fall under heading 4418, not sheet plywood of 4412.
