Flat-packing changes the packing and the transport cost, not the classification. The article is still kitchen furniture of wood, so 9403.40 remains the starting branch. What you should state clearly is that it ships unassembled, in case the destination treats knock-down goods differently.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details hs-faq-item is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Where does a bathroom vanity go?<\/summary>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meestal <b>9403.60<\/b> as other wooden furniture, unless it is designed as sanitary ware in ceramic or stone, which leaves Chapter 94. A timber vanity with a ceramic basin presented together is classified by the component that gives it its essential character \u2014 document both parts.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details hs-faq-item is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Do office desks and cabinets share a code?<\/summary>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They share a heading: 9403.30 covers wooden office furniture, 9403.10 covers metal office furniture. A reception counter built into the wall may leave Chapter 94 entirely if it is installed as part of the building.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details hs-faq-item is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>What about a wardrobe with mirror doors?<\/summary>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It stays in the furniture heading when the mirror is a component of the wardrobe rather than the product being sold. If the goods are separate mirror panels packed separately, they fall in Chapter 70.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details hs-faq-item is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>How do MDF, plywood and solid wood differ for classification?<\/summary>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not at the six-digit level \u2014 all are wood for 9403. The material matters for the destination line, for formaldehyde and fire rules, and for the documents your broker asks for.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details hs-faq-item is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Can mixed-material furniture use one code everywhere?<\/summary>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. If no single material gives the article its essential character, the destination\u2019s classification rules decide.
