Overview
This category, HTS Code 9403.99.50.80, encompasses "Other" parts of furniture not specifically enumerated elsewhere within the "Parts" subheading of Chapter 94, and importantly, are made of textile materials other than cotton. This classification applies to components that contribute to the structure, support, or finishing of furniture items that do not fall under more specific textual part classifications. Examples could include cushions or padding made from synthetic fabrics, felt, or other non-cotton textile materials that are integral to the design of furniture such as sofas, chairs, or shelving units.
It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings. HTS Code 9403.99.50.05 specifically covers parts for toddler beds, cribs, bassinets, and cradles, while HTS Code 9403.99.50.10 is designated for parts intended for play yards and other enclosures for confining children. Therefore, this "Other" category is for textile parts used in a broader range of furniture types beyond those explicitly listed in its sibling categories. The primary differentiating factor, alongside purpose, is the material composition – strictly excluding cotton textiles.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification within this code hinges on confirming that the part in question is made from textile materials other than cotton and is not specifically categorized under any preceding HTS subheadings within 9403.99.50. The lack of specific subcategories means that meticulous examination of the product's intended use and its textile composition is paramount for accurate classification.
