Last updated: April 2026 dataWooden tableware and kitchenware crafted from tropical hardwoods — acacia, teak, mango, and similar species — are classified here, with India leading US supply followed by Vietnam and China. The use of tropical timber species triggers Lacey Act obligations: importers must file a declaration identifying the genus, species, country of harvest, and quantity of wood used, and must exercise due care to ensure the wood was legally harvested under source-country law. The heading is subdivided into forks and spoons (4419201000) and a residual kitchenware category (4419209000), with food-contact compliance under FDA also applicable.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Importers must file a Lacey Act Plant and Plant Product Declaration (PPQ Form 505) identifying the scientific name (genus and species), country of harvest, quantity, and value of the wood component. For tropical hardwoods, where species verification can be complex, importers should obtain species identification documentation from suppliers and maintain chain-of-custody records. USDA APHIS administers Lacey Act enforcement for plant products.
No — the HTS lines under 4419200000 do not differentiate by wood species; the subdivision is by product form (forks and spoons at 4419201000 versus other kitchenware at 4419209000). However, species identity is critical for Lacey Act compliance and may affect admissibility if the species is subject to CITES trade controls. Importers should confirm species documentation independently of the tariff classification process.
