Explanation

CBP started with General Rule of Interpretation 1, which classifies goods by the words of the headings and notes. The letter cites the Explanatory Notes to Chapter 94, which describe furniture as movable articles constructed for placing on the floor or ground and used mainly for a utilitarian purpose to equip private dwellings, offices and similar places. CBP found the console is furniture within that meaning.

Heading 9403 covers other furniture and parts thereof. CBP placed the console on the line for other wooden furniture, other; the cabinet is MDF covered in ash wood veneer on solid ash legs.

Does this apply to your product?

It likely does if you can answer yes to each of these:

  • Is it a cabinet or console made of wood, such as MDF with a wood veneer?
  • Is it a movable piece of furniture that stands on the floor?
  • Is it used to furnish a home or similar place, such as a media or record cabinet?

A no to any of them can mean a different code. A licensed broker can classify your product.
