4410.11 Particle board of wood, whether or not agglomerated with resins or other organic binding substances
A full HS code. These six digits are what goes on a customs declaration, and they mean the same thing in every country that uses the Harmonized System.
Section IX, Wood & Wood Products — wood, charcoal, cork and articles of straw or basketware.
- 44 Chapter Wood and articles of wood; wood charcoal
- 10 Heading Particle board, oriented strand board (OSB) and similar board (e.g. waferboard) of wood or other ligneous materials, whether or not agglomerated with resins or other organic binding substances
- 11 Subheading Particle board of wood, whether or not agglomerated with resins or other organic binding substances
Chapter 44 covers wood and articles of wood; wood charcoal: raw lumber, sawn timber, plywood, particleboard, and finished wood products like frames and tools. It is one of the largest manufacturing chapters, spanning everything from raw logs to finished wooden goods, with treatment method (sawn, planed, veneered) driving much of the subheading structure. Classification tip: Wood packaging material (pallets, crates) usually needs ISPM 15 heat-treatment or fumigation certification stamped on the item itself, separate from and in addition to the HS code on the invoice.

The wording above is the Harmonized System nomenclature as published by the World Customs Organization, HS 2022 edition. It is a classification reference, not a tariff: it carries no duty rates, and it stops at six digits — the importing country adds its own beyond that.
Classification is decided by the General Rules of Interpretation and the section and chapter notes, and it is the importing country’s customs authority that makes it binding.

4410.11 covers particle board of wood, whether or not agglomerated with resins or other organic binding substances. It sits under heading 44.10 (particle board, oriented strand board (osb) and similar board (e.g. waferboard) of wood or other ligneous materials, whether or not agglomerated with resins or other organic binding substances) in chapter 44, Section IX of the Harmonized System.
It is the international part of it. Six digits are the same in every country that applies the Harmonized System; the importing country then extends them to eight or ten for its own tariff and statistics. Declare 4410.11 plus whatever national digits the destination’s tariff schedule adds to it.
The General Rules of Interpretation, read together with the notes to Section IX and to chapter 44. A description that reads right is not enough on its own — the notes routinely pull goods out of the chapter they obviously belong to and put them somewhere else. Where duty or licensing turns on the answer, ask the importing country’s customs authority for a binding ruling.
A wrong or missing code is one of the common reasons customs holds a container, and a hold shows up as a milestone that stops moving. Watch for it in the container tracking app, on the air waybill in the air cargo tracker, or through the tracking API.
