Furniture covers HS Chapter 94 and is one of the highest-volume import categories for Amazon sellers and home goods brands. The HS code depends on the type of furniture (seating, storage, sleeping) and the primary material (wood, metal, upholstered). Getting the code right matters because US duty ranges from 0% to 9.5% depending on the subheading.

Flat-pack vs assembled furniture

Flat-pack furniture (unassembled, shipped in cartons) classifies the same as assembled. The HS code follows the finished product, not the shipping form. IKEA-style flat-pack bookshelves are 9403.30, same as pre-assembled ones.

However, furniture parts (legs, drawers, hinges sold separately) may classify under 9403.90 (parts of furniture) with different duty rates.

Frequently asked questions

Do standing desks classify differently from regular desks?
No. Height-adjustable standing desks are 9403.30 or 9403.20 depending on material (wood or metal frame). The adjustable mechanism doesn't change the classification.
What about outdoor furniture?
Outdoor furniture classifies under the same Chapter 94 codes. A metal outdoor table is 9403.20, same as an indoor one. Garden umbrellas go to 6601 (umbrellas), not furniture.
