Analysis
HTS 4412.49.00 covers laminated veneered lumber (LVL): other, with both outer plies of coniferous wood under heading 4412 (plywood, veneered panels and similar laminated wood).
Rates on the nearby lines range from duty-free to 8%. The costliest confusion would be with 4412.91.41 (plywood: other) at 8%, a difference of 8 points on the customs value.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 40% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 40% duty.
There is no general-rate duty on this line, which puts it with roughly 61% of the 257 tariff lines in chapter 44 that are also free. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.
Census statistics map these goods to NAICS 321212 (Softwood Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing), an industry of 80 US establishments employing 13,161 people, the industry a domestic producer of these goods reports under.
