Import Tips
• Label upholstery fabric content accurately (e.g
• polyester vs. leather) to match declarations and prevent reclassification
• Include assembly instructions if knocked-down for import to qualify under furniture valuation rules
• Watch for anti-dumping duties on metal furniture from Asia; check USTR lists pre-shipment
