HS Code 9403.91 – Furniture; parts, of wood
HS code 9403.91 is the 6-digit subheading for furniture, parts, of wood. It is used for wooden table legs, wooden chair frames, wooden drawer fronts, wooden cabinet doors and wooden bed slats.
What HS 9403.91 covers
This HS code specifically covers identifiable parts of wooden furniture when imported separately, rather than as complete furniture units. Examples include wooden table legs, chair frames, drawer fronts, cabinet doors, and bed slats. This trade is crucial for furniture manufacturers, assembly plants, and repair services that source components internationally to optimize costs, leverage specialized manufacturing, or access specific wood types. Key considerations for importers and exporters include the type of wood, finish, precise dimensions, and compatibility with the final furniture product. The global furniture supply chain often involves importing parts from specialized manufacturers before final assembly in another country, driven by factors such as labor costs, material availability, and logistical efficiencies in flat-pack shipping.

The 'identifiable part' aspect is key.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
