Besides the ordinary duty, the EU records these kinds of measure against this code. They are listed as signals only: whether one applies to your goods can depend on where they come from, who produced them, the exact product and the documents you present. No amounts are worked out here.
Trade-defence measures, such as anti-dumping duty, may apply to goods originating in China; any country except China; Türkiye.
The duty depends on the producer or exporter, so two shipments of the same goods can be charged differently.

Before you use the code
The code can be right while what you pay still changes, because of where the goods come from, when they arrive, or extra EU measures.
Worth comparing
Codes that sit close to this one, for when the material itself could be different.
That code covers tropical wood sheets and similar wood for veneer or plywood manufacture, whereas this code covers finished plywood made only from wood sheets.
Both cover this type of plywood, but that code is for an outer layer made from the specifically listed tropical wood species, while this code excludes those species.
