Import Tips
• Verify metal frame composition for accurate classification; provide material certificates to avoid reclassification as wood-framed
• Ensure country-of-origin labeling complies with CBP rules for furniture; common pitfall is missing stability test documentation
• Declare as individual units if not sold in sets to prevent shifting to heading 9401.90 for parts
