## What this code covers

Metal furniture for homes, shops, schools and other places that are not offices: for example metal bed frames, shelving units, tables, cabinets and garden furniture. Metal furniture of a kind used in offices, seats and chairs, and furniture parts have their own codes.

## How to tell it apart from neighbouring codes

| Code | Choose it if… |
| --- | --- |
| **940320** (this page) | The furniture is mainly metal and is not the office kind: a metal bed frame, shelving unit, table or cabinet for the home. |
| [940310](/hscode/94/940310) | The metal furniture is of a kind used in offices, such as a metal desk or filing cabinet. |
| [940360](/hscode/94/940360) | The furniture is mainly wood and is not for offices, kitchens or bedrooms. |
| [940370](/hscode/94/940370) | The furniture is mainly plastic. |
| [940399](/hscode/94/940399) | You are shipping parts only, not made of wood (for example metal legs or frames). |

## Common misclassifications

- **Metal-frame chairs, stools or sofas declared as 940320** → [940179](/hscode/94/940179). Seats of all kinds belong in heading 9401, even when the frame is metal.
- **A mattress shipped on its own declared with the metal bed frame** → [940421](/hscode/94/940421). Mattresses are bedding under heading 9404, not furniture under 9403.
- **Hospital beds with mechanical fittings declared as 940320** → [940290](/hscode/94/940290). Medical, surgical and similar furniture has its own heading, 9402.
