China furniture tariff calculator: check margin before the purchase order

Plan China-origin furniture imports with Chapter 94 review, base duty, Section 301 assumptions, landed-cost modeling, and broker-ready source questions.

Source-first answer

China-origin furniture usually starts with Chapter 94 classification, then requires origin review, base MFN duty, possible Section 301 coverage, AD/CVD screening, freight, packaging, and broker fees. Treat the calculator result as a planning packet: keep every rate, source URL, retrieval date, and open broker question attached.

Product scope
Chapter 94 first

Wood, metal, upholstered, parts, and accessories can classify differently.

China layer
Section 301 review

Do not assume a single China furniture surcharge without HTS and Chapter 99 review.

Decision metric
Landed margin

Compare duty, freight, fees, and target price before committing to inventory.

How to model China furniture landed cost

Enter the supplier quote, origin, HTS candidate, base duty, freight, insurance, fixed fees, and any modeled additional tariff layer. Keep Section 301 separate from the base HTS duty so a broker can verify or correct the assumption.

Broker questions to preserve

Ask whether the product is furniture, a part, or another article; whether materials or construction move it outside the expected heading; whether Section 301 or an exclusion applies; and whether AD/CVD, quotas, or PGA rules need review.

When to compare Vietnam or Mexico

If the China scenario erases margin, duplicate the calculator assumptions and compare the same product from Vietnam or Mexico. Keep the comparison as planning only until origin and classification are verified.

FAQ

Can I use one China furniture tariff rate?

No. Furniture classification, materials, parts, origin, Section 301, exclusions, and AD/CVD exposure can change the duty stack.

Does Chapter 94 cover every furniture-related product?

No. Parts, lighting, bedding, hardware, and specialized goods may classify outside Chapter 94.

What should I send my broker?

Send product specs, photos, supplier origin evidence, HTS candidate, base duty source, modeled Section 301 assumption, and the landed-cost worksheet.
