Import Tips
• Verify the chair has all three movements (rotate, recline, elevate) via manufacturer specs to confirm 9402.10 classification
• Include detailed assembly diagrams and upholstery material certifications to avoid misclassification as general furniture
• Ensure FDA compliance if marketed for medical use, though primarily for barber shops; common pitfall is incorrect origin labeling
