Import Tips

Verify the frame is predominantly wood to avoid reclassification under metal frame headings like 9401.71

Provide detailed photos and material breakdowns in entry documentation to confirm 'other seat' status

Ensure no convertible bed features, as those shift to different subheadings and may require additional safety certifications
