Furniture, of bamboo.

Classification of bamboo cabinet under HS 9403.82

Bamboo cabinets are classified under HS code 9403.82, which specifically covers furniture made of bamboo. Chapter 94 includes furniture, bedding, and similar furnished equipment. Within this chapter, heading 9403 covers "Other furniture and parts thereof." The international Harmonized System was updated to provide specific subheadings for bamboo products to better track the trade of sustainable materials. Therefore, any cabinet where the primary structural material is bamboo must be classified here rather than under general wooden furniture. This applies to cabinets used in kitchens, bedrooms, or offices, provided they are made of bamboo. The classification is determined by the material of the outer surface and the primary construction, ensuring that bamboo's unique status as a non-wood forest product is recognized in trade statistics.

Codes often confused with 9403.82

Common mistake. Bamboo cabinets are often misclassified under HS code 9403.60, which is the code for other wooden furniture. While bamboo is often treated like wood, the HS system provides a specific carve-out for bamboo in 9403.82. Another error is using HS code 4602, which covers basketwork and other articles made directly to shape from plaiting materials. However, because a cabinet is a finished piece of furniture, Chapter 94 takes precedence. Additionally, if the cabinet is made of bamboo laminate but has a plastic surface, it might be incorrectly placed in 9403.70 (plastic furniture).

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. 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).
