Regulatory notes
NENC9401
Seats (other than those of heading 9402 ), whether or not convertible into beds, and parts thereof This heading includes sets of a table and chairs, where the table is designed for other purposes than dining while sitting on the seats (chairs, stools, deck-chairs, armchairs, couches etc.). Generally, these tables are too small for dining and they are inferior to the seats e.g. in size. Consequently, the seats give the set its essential character within the meaning of GIR 3(b). (See also the CN Explanatory Notes to heading 9403 ). Examples of sets falling under heading 9401 : For the purposes of this heading, any reference to bamboo applies only to vegetable materials of heading 1401 . On the other hand, for the purposes of this heading, any reference to wood or wooden applies also to bamboo plates of heading 4412 . (See also note 1(b) and note 6 to Chapter 44).
