Tableware and kitchenware, of wood
HS 4419 — Tableware and kitchenware, of wood — sits in Chapter 44 (Wood and articles of wood; wood charcoal). Roundwood, sawn lumber, veneer, plywood, wooden panels, and wooden articles. EU importers pay MFN duty plus import VAT at the border; origin-specific trade remedies (anti-dumping, countervailing, safeguards, US Section 301) can stack on top when applicable. Classification disputes are decided by the section + chapter legal notes shown below — these are legally binding interpretation rules, not advisory text. The duty table renders live rates from authoritative tariff sources (EU TARIC, HMRC XI, USITC HTS); cross-country rows compare treatment under five tariff schedules.
