Import Tips & Compliance

Verify wooden frame composition and upholstery materials for accurate classification; provide lab tests if synthetic fibers exceed natural

Ensure furniture meets U.S. flammability standards (e.g

TB 117-2013) with proper documentation to avoid CBP holds

Declare country of origin clearly, as wooden frames may trigger Lacey Act requirements for timber sourcing
