Classification of furniture locks under HS 8301.30
Locks designed for use on furniture are classified under HS code 8301.30. This classification is part of heading 8301, which encompasses padlocks and locks (key, combination, or electrically operated) of base metal. While heading 8302 covers general furniture fittings, heading 8301 is more specific for locking mechanisms. According to the Section XV notes, base metal articles are classified by their function and material. Furniture locks are distinct from locks used for doors of buildings or motor vehicles. The classification includes the lock body and, if presented together, the corresponding keys. This code applies to locks used in desks, cabinets, wardrobes, and lockers. The essential requirement is that the lock is made of base metal and is of a kind used for furniture applications.

Codes often confused with 8301.30
Common mistake. Furniture locks are often misclassified under 8301.40, which is the "other locks" category. However, 8301.30 is a specific provision for furniture that takes precedence. They are also sometimes incorrectly placed in 8302.42 with other furniture hardware; however, heading 8301 specifically covers all locking mechanisms, making it the more specific heading per GRI 3(a). If the lock is made of plastic, it would be classified in Chapter 39.

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).
