Last updated: August 2026 dataTeak (Tectona grandis) commands premium pricing in the marine, outdoor furniture, and high-end flooring sectors due to its natural oil content, dimensional stability, and durability. The single US tariff line 4407230100 covers teak sawn or chipped lengthwise exceeding 6mm, whether or not planed, sanded, or end-jointed. Myanmar (Burma) has historically been a major teak source, but US import restrictions and sanctions have redirected trade toward plantation-grown teak from Central America, Southeast Asia, and Africa; importers must conduct due-diligence screening against applicable sanctions programs before sourcing.

OFAC sanctions and the Burma Act have restricted or prohibited importation of goods of Burmese origin, including teak. Importers must screen shipments for Myanmar origin regardless of the country of export, as teak logs are sometimes processed in third countries before re-export. Consulting a licensed customs broker and OFAC compliance counsel is advisable before sourcing teak from any Southeast Asian supply chain.
Yes — the tariff classification does not distinguish between plantation-grown and old-growth teak. Both classify under 4407230100 provided the species is Tectona grandis and the lumber is sawn lengthwise exceeding 6mm. However, buyers in premium markets often require species and origin certification (e.g., FSC) to verify sustainable sourcing, which is a commercial rather than a customs requirement.
