HS Code for Wooden TV stand
A wooden TV stand is classified under HS code 9403.60. Chapter 94 covers furniture and related articles. Heading 9403 is a broad category for \"Other furniture and parts thereof,\" which excludes seats (9401) and medical furniture (9402). Within heading 9403, the subheadings are organized by material and the intended environment of use. 9403.30 is for office furniture, 9403.40 for kitchen furniture, and 9403.50 for bedroom furniture. Since a TV stand is typically used in a living room, lounge, or media room, it does not fit into the specific room categories and is thus classified under the \"other wooden furniture\" category of 9403.60. This applies to stands made of solid wood, particle board, or fiberboard (MDF) with a wood veneer. The classification remains 9403.60 even if the stand includes small metal or glass components, such as handles or shelves, provided the predominant material and character remain wooden.

Common Misclassification
A frequent misclassification occurs when importers use 9403.50 (Wooden furniture of a kind used in the bedroom). If a TV stand is sold as part of a bedroom set, some may try to use this code, but 9403.60 is generally preferred for media furniture. Another error is 9403.20, which is for metal furniture; if the stand has a metal frame with only wooden shelves, the classification depends on which material provides the essential character. Furthermore, if the TV stand is designed to be fixed to the wall, it is still furniture under 9403, but it should not be confused with builders' joinery under 4418.
