Last updated: April 2026 dataHem-fir is a commercially recognized species combination pairing western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) with true firs (Abies spp.), widely used in North American structural framing and dimension lumber markets. The single US tariff line 4407140000 covers untreated hem-fir sawn lengthwise exceeding 6mm in thickness, distinguishing it from treated or finger-jointed coniferous lumber classified elsewhere. Softwood lumber from Canada has historically been subject to antidumping and countervailing duty orders, making country-of-origin documentation and applicable trade-remedy exposure a routine compliance concern for importers of this species mix.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Hem-fir is a defined species combination — western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) paired with Abies spp. firs — and has its own dedicated HS6 heading (440714). Lumber that does not meet this specific species mix, or that involves other hemlock or fir species, would fall under the broader 'other coniferous' heading 440719 instead.
Yes. Softwood lumber from Canada has been subject to antidumping and countervailing duty orders for extended periods. Importers of hem-fir should verify current order status with CBP and factor potential duty deposits into landed-cost calculations, as scope rulings can affect whether a specific shipment is covered.
