Import Tips
• Verify material composition is over 95% plastic via lab testing to avoid reclassification to wood or metal furniture
• Include assembly instructions and retail packaging to prove household end-use, preventing industrial furniture duties
• Declare as 'other household' explicitly; common pitfall is mislabeling as office furniture under 9403.30
