9404.90.20.90 - Other 🖩

This category, HTS Code 9404.90.20.90, encompasses a wide array of furnishing articles that are not specifically classified elsewhere within heading 9404. It includes items such as decorative pillows, throw pillows, floor cushions, and pouffes that are filled with any material, including cellular rubber or plastics. These items are characterized by their decorative or comfort-providing function, often serving as accessories to furniture rather than primary bedding components.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling, HTS Code 9404.90.20.10, which specifically covers bed pillows. While both fall under the broader category of pillows, cushions, and similar furnishings, this "Other" category is for items that, by their design, intended use, or specific characteristics, do not meet the criteria for a bed pillow as defined by statistical note 6 to this chapter. For instance, ornamental cushions intended for sofas or chairs would fall here, while those primarily for sleeping would be classified under the bed pillow subcategory.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this specific code relies on the diligent application of the general definitions within heading 9404 and the exclusion of items that fit more precisely into the preceding, more specific subcategories. The key is to determine that an item is a pillow, cushion, or similar furnishing but does not fit the specific requirements for bed pillows or other more granular classifications within this heading.
