Overview
HTS Code 9403.83.00 specifically classifies furniture constructed primarily from rattan. This classification encompasses a wide array of furniture items, from seating and tables to cabinets and storage units, where rattan is the principal constituent material. The defining characteristic for inclusion in this category is the significant use of rattan in the item's construction, contributing to its primary structural integrity and visual appearance.
This category is distinguished from its sibling, 9403.82.00, by the specific material. While 9403.82.00 covers furniture made of bamboo, 9403.83.00 is exclusively for rattan. It also differs from the broader "Other" category under 9403.89, which would include furniture made from other natural materials not otherwise specified.
Further subdivisions exist within 9403.83.00, providing more granular classification based on the type and intended use of the rattan furniture. For example, 9403.83.00.01 and 9403.83.00.02 specifically address children's furniture such as cribs, toddler beds, bassinets, cradles, and play yards. The remaining subcategories, 9403.83.00.15 and 9403.83.00.30, further differentiate between other household rattan furniture and general "other" categories, allowing for precise import and export declarations.
