21 six-digit codes · Heading 7 of 21 in Chapter 44 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
HS code 4407 is where sawn wood over 6mm thick is classified. This page helps you pick the right subheading, from pine to oak to teak, and spot the wood that belongs elsewhere.
No heading in Chapter 44 is cut finer than 4407. Its 21 six-digit codes, 440711 to 440799, are the most any single heading in the chapter carries — “Wood sawn or chipped lengthwise, sliced or peeled, whether or not planed, sanded or finger-jointed, of a thickness exceeding 6mm” is where this chapter gets specific. The heading is number 7 of 21 in Chapter 44, Wood and articles of wood; wood charcoal, which runs to 128 six-digit codes in all.

What HS code 4407 covers
Heading 4407 is for boards, planks and beams cut along the length of a log. Traders call this sawn wood, lumber or timber. Slicing and peeling are included too. Surface work such as planing or sanding does not move a piece to another heading.
Finger-jointed pieces also stay here. These are short lengths glued end to end with interlocking cuts. Some countries say HSN code instead of HS code, and HSN code 4407 means the same goods.
The heading sits in Chapter 44 wood trade, beside separate headings for logs, panels, packing and finished wooden articles.
Coniferous sawn wood: 440711 to 440719
Coniferous wood is softwood. The codes sort it by tree type, and mixed lots get their own lines.
- 440711 covers pine.
- 440712 covers fir and spruce.
- 440713 covers S-P-F, a mix of spruce, pine and fir.
- 440719 catches every other conifer.
Tropical sawn wood: 440721 to 440729
Tropical timber has the next block. Most lines name one species or a small family. One line gathers the rest.
- 440721 is mahogany.
- 440722 is virola, imbuia and balsa.
- 440723 is teak.
- 440725 is the red meranti group.
- 440727 is sapelli.
- 440728 is iroko.
- 440729 is any other tropical species.
Other sawn wood: oak, beech, maple and more
The last block holds hardwood that is neither coniferous nor tropical. It starts with oak and runs through common trees of cooler regions.
- 440791 is oak.
- 440792 is beech.
- 440793 is maple.
- 440794 is cherry.
- 440795 is ash.
- 440796 is birch.
- 440797 is poplar and aspen.
How to choose the right subheading and what is left out
Work in order. First check the thickness, because only pieces above 6mm belong here. Next decide if the wood is coniferous, tropical or other. Then look for the exact species. If none fits, use the leftover code for that group: 440719, 440729 or 440799.
Countries add digits after the sixth to build their own tariff lines, so check your national line too. The HS code classifier can help you confirm a match.
These goods look close but sit in other headings:
- Wood in the rough, or roughly squared, goes to 4403.
- Railway sleepers go to 4406.
- Boards with tongued, grooved or beaded edges go to 4409.
