Sourcing this category from India
HS 44.01 covers fuel wood, wood chips, sawdust and wood waste, including briquettes and pellets. India trades agro-residue and wood pellets for energy and board manufacture; this heading is more a biomass and by-product line than a finished-goods export category.
How to read this code
44.01 is the four-digit HS heading for fuel wood, in logs, billets, twigs, faggots or sim. To clear customs your destination country extends it to a full 8–10 digit code and assigns the duty rate. India's preferential trade agreements (UAE CEPA, Australia ECTA, and others) can reduce or zero out that duty on many wood, cork & basketware lines — check our import guides for your market.
