9401.39.00.10 - Household 🖩

This HTS classification, 9401.39.00.10, specifically covers "Household" swivel seats with variable height adjustment that do not fall into any more specific subcategories. This category encompasses a wide array of seating designed for domestic use, such as office chairs, gaming chairs, or even some dining chairs, where the primary function is seating and they feature a mechanism allowing for adjustment of seat height and rotation. The "Household" designation implies these items are primarily intended for residential settings, distinguishing them from similar seating found in commercial or industrial environments.

This classification is distinct from its sibling category, 9401.39.00.30, also designated as "Other." While both are at the same granular level for swivel seats with variable height adjustment, the distinction lies in the specific sub-grouping or intended use that might be defined by further subdivisions not present at this particular level. Without further subcategories beneath 9401.39.00.10, the "Household" qualifier becomes the critical differentiator for goods classified here, focusing on their end-use environment.

As this node represents a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification under 9401.39.00.10 relies heavily on the descriptive qualifiers provided: the item must be a swivel seat, possess variable height adjustment, and be intended for household use. Importers must ensure that the goods do not meet the criteria for any more specific HTS code within heading 9401, particularly those relating to convertible seating or more specialized types of chairs.
