Overview
This category, HTS Code 9403.89.60, covers "Other" furniture made from materials not specifically enumerated in prior subheadings within the furniture of other materials category. This includes furniture constructed from a broad range of materials such as plastics, metals (other than those specifically classified elsewhere), or composite materials, provided they are not primarily formed from cane, osier, bamboo, or similar materials. The key determinant for inclusion here is the exclusion from more specific classifications of furniture of other materials.
The primary sibling to this category is 9403.89.30, which specifically covers furniture made from cane, osier, or similar natural fibrous materials. Therefore, 9403.89.60 serves as a residual category for all other types of furniture constructed from diverse materials that do not fit the description of cane, osier, or similar materials. It acts as a catch-all for furniture not otherwise specified, as long as it falls under the broader scope of chapter 94 and is not classified under other more specific furniture headings.
Within this "Other" furniture category, further subdivisions exist to provide more granular classification. These subcategories, such as 9403.89.60.03 (cribs, toddler beds, etc.), 9403.89.60.15 (other household furniture), and 9403.89.60.20 (other), allow for the specific identification of distinct types of furniture based on their intended use or design. The existence of these subcategories highlights the need to examine the specific product's form and function to ensure accurate classification beyond the general "other" designation.
