Last updated: April 2026 dataWestern red cedar shingles — classified separately at 4418500010 — are the commercially dominant product in this heading and are almost exclusively sourced from Canada, which accounts for the vast majority of US supply. The US schedule also distinguishes other wood shingles (4418500030) from wood shakes (4418500050), a split that matters because shakes are split rather than sawn, producing a rougher texture used in premium residential roofing. Guyana and Colombia appear among secondary suppliers, typically exporting tropical hardwood shingles. Canadian softwood shingles and shakes have historically been subject to softwood lumber trade remedy proceedings, and importers should confirm current scope and duty deposit requirements.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Shingles are sawn on both faces to a tapered profile, yielding a smooth, uniform surface. Shakes are split (or split and sawn) from the wood block, producing a thicker, rougher texture. The US tariff schedule reflects this distinction: sawn shingles fall under 4418500030 (or 4418500010 for western red cedar), while split shakes are classified under 4418500050.
The scope of US softwood lumber trade remedy orders has historically included certain cedar shingles and shakes from Canada, though scope has varied across successive proceedings. Importers must review the current Commerce Department scope rulings and any applicable CBP instructions to determine whether a specific product and species is covered before filing entry.
