Import Tips
• Verify metal frame composition and upholstery material for accurate HTS classification; provide lab tests if synthetic fibers exceed natural content
• Ensure furniture flammability standards compliance (e.g
• CA TB 117) with certifications to avoid CBP holds
• Declare country of origin clearly, as metal frames often trigger Section 301 tariffs from certain origins
