CN Explanatory Notes

The European Commission's explanatory notes on how to classify goods in these CN codes. They are not legally binding but customs authorities follow them; they complement the HS Explanatory Notes of the World Customs Organization.

General notes to the chapter

FURNITURE; BEDDING, MATTRESSES, MATTRESS SUPPORTS, CUSHIONS AND SIMILAR STUFFED FURNISHINGS; LAMPS AND LIGHTING FITTINGS, NOT ELSEWHERE SPECIFIED OR INCLUDED; ILLUMINATED SIGNS, ILLUMINATED NAMEPLATES AND THE LIKE; PREFABRICATED BUILDINGS

General

For the purposes of this Chapter the term ‘furniture’ implies that these products are generally designed to remain in private dwellings or gardens etc. See also the definition of the term ‘furniture’ in the HS Explanatory Note to Chapter 94, General, second paragraph, (A).

Consequently, inflatable articles (such as inflatable chairs, inflatable lounge chairs etc.) that are generally designed to be taken along to different places (for example, camping grounds, the beach, etc.) and to be used there temporarily are not furniture within the meaning of Chapter 94, but depending on their constituent material are camping goods of heading 6306 or articles of Chapters 39 or 40.

Due to their objective characteristics these inflatable articles are easy to transport, because they are lightweight, easy and quick to set-up and to pack away.

Examples of some of these inflatable articles:
