Rattan Armchair Frame from Germany

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
