Classification of wooden windows under HS 4418.19
Wooden windows and French-windows, along with their frames, are classified under HS code 4418.19, provided they are not made of tropical wood. This classification falls under heading 4418, which covers builders' joinery and carpentry of wood. Windows are considered essential components of building construction, and their classification here reflects their status as manufactured joinery. The subheading 4418.19 specifically excludes products made from tropical woods, which are instead classified under 4418.11. For a product to fall under this code, it must be recognizable as a window or a window frame, often including the necessary grooves for glazing or hardware attachment. Even if the window is imported with glass already installed, the wooden frame typically provides the essential character for classification within Chapter 44, specifically under the builders' joinery provisions. The classification follows GRI 1 and 6, focusing on the material (wood), the specific species (non-tropical), and the intended use in construction.

Codes often confused with 4418.19
Common mistake. The most common misclassification is using 4418.11, which is only for windows made of tropical wood species. Another error involves classifying wooden windows under 7308.30 if they have significant metal reinforcement, though usually, the wood content keeps them in 4418. Additionally, simple wooden frames that are not specifically for windows might be incorrectly placed in 4414.00 (picture frames), which is for decorative rather than structural building use.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
