Import Tips
• Verify the frame is predominantly metal (over 50% by weight) to confirm classification under 9401.71; provide material composition certificates
• Label upholstery fabrics accurately for flammability standards (e.g
• CA TB 117) and ensure household end-use documentation to avoid commercial reclassification
