Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'replacement furniture parts' to distinguish from finished furniture under 9403.60
• Include origin certificates for bamboo to qualify for potential preferential tariffs under trade agreements
• Avoid bundling multiple parts that could be seen as kits, risking reclassification as prefabricated units
