Rattan Armchair Frame from China

A structural frame for an armchair made entirely from woven rattan, designed for floor placement as part of seating furniture. It falls under HTS 9401.99.25.80 as a part of a seat (not barber, medical, or similar chairs) made from cane, osier, bamboo, or similar materials, excluding rubber- or plastics-covered items. This classification applies because it is a unfinished seat component intended for assembly into household or office seating.

Import Tips

Verify material composition via lab testing to confirm 100% natural cane/osier/bamboo without plastic/rubber covering, as per subheading exclusions

Provide assembly diagrams showing integration into complete seats to avoid reclassification as unfinished furniture under heading 9401

Declare as 'seat parts' explicitly on commercial invoice; common pitfall is mislabeling as 'bamboo furniture' leading to higher duties
