Import Tips

Verify wooden frame composition and upholstery material via lab testing to confirm classification and avoid reclassification as metal-framed

Include detailed invoices specifying 'household use' to distinguish from office chairs under 9401.71

Ensure compliance with U.S. flammability standards (e.g

TB 117-2013) for upholstered furniture imports
