Overview
This HTS category, 9403.70.80.15, specifically encompasses "Other household" furniture made primarily of plastics, falling under the broader heading of "Furniture of plastics." It serves as a residual category for plastic household furniture that does not fit into more specific subcategories. Examples include, but are not limited to, plastic shelving units, modular plastic storage cabinets for domestic use, and plastic tables or chairs designed for residential settings, excluding those explicitly classified elsewhere.
This classification is distinct from its siblings such as cribs (9403.70.80.01), toddler beds, bassinets, and cradles (9403.70.80.02), and play yards (9403.70.80.03), which are all specifically designed for infant and child confinement. It also differs from the "Office" category (9403.70.80.20), which is intended for plastic furniture used in commercial or professional workspaces. The existence of the "Other" sibling (9403.70.80.31) at this level indicates that there may be further nuanced distinctions within the broader category of plastic household furniture, although this specific code is the most general for this purpose.
As this node represents a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories for this classification. Therefore, classification into 9403.70.80.15 relies on ensuring the item is indeed plastic household furniture and does not meet the criteria for any other more specific sibling category. The primary determining factors will be the material composition (predominantly plastic) and its intended use within a domestic environment.
