Overview
This HTS category, 9401.69.40.15, encompasses chairs with wooden frames, specifically those of teak, intended for household use, which are not otherwise specified or distinguished. These are typically assembled chairs designed for domestic environments, such as dining rooms, living rooms, or studies, crafted from teak wood. The classification applies when the chair does not fall into more specific subheadings based on material, construction, or specialized function.
This specific subheading distinguishes itself from its sibling category, 9401.69.40.11, which is exclusively for chairs made from plantation-harvested teak. Therefore, the distinction hinges on the origin of the teak wood used in the chair's construction, with this current category applying to teak that is not specifically identified as plantation-harvested.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 9401.69.40.15. Classification at this level signifies that the chairs in question have met all the preceding criteria for being other seats with wooden frames, of teak, and for household use, and do not fit into any more granular distinctions within the Harmonized Tariff Schedule.
