Overview
This HTS category, 9403.99, covers parts for furniture not specifically classified elsewhere within the furniture chapter. It encompasses a broad range of components that, while essential for the assembly, repair, or completion of furniture, do not fall under more specific material-based subheadings like "of wood" (9403.91). This includes parts made from materials such as metal, plastic, fabric, or combinations thereof, which are intended for use with furniture falling under headings 9401 through 9403.
Crucially, this category serves as a residual for furniture parts. It distinguishes itself from the sibling category 9403.91.00 by excluding parts made predominantly of wood. Therefore, if a furniture part is primarily constructed from metal, plastic, glass, or any other material apart from wood, and is intended for furniture that is not otherwise specifically excluded or classified, it would likely fall under 9403.99.
Within this "Other" category for furniture parts, further distinctions are made at the subheading level. Specifically, 9403.99.10 addresses parts for furniture designed for use in motor vehicles, recognizing the specialized nature and requirements of automotive interiors. The remaining "Other" sub-branch within 9403.99 serves as the final residual for all other furniture parts not covered by the motor vehicle-specific subheading or the "of wood" sibling category, ensuring comprehensive classification for diverse furniture components.
