Last updated: May 2026 dataHydraulically or mechanically adjustable professional chairs — including dental chairs, barber chairs, and examination chairs used in medical and personal-care settings — are classified under a single 10-digit line (9402100000) that covers both the chairs and their parts. China is the dominant supplier, followed by Vietnam and Taiwan; Japanese and German chairs represent premium-segment imports often associated with specialized dental or medical equipment. Dental chairs that incorporate suction systems, lighting, or instrument delivery units may trigger FDA medical-device review as part of a broader dental unit, so importers should assess whether the chair is entered as a standalone article or as part of a regulated medical device system.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
A dental chair entered as a standalone piece of furniture is generally not subject to FDA medical-device review. However, when the chair is integrated with or sold as part of a dental unit that includes suction, water delivery, or instrument arms, the combined system may be classified as a Class II medical device subject to FDA 510(k) clearance or registration. Importers should evaluate the configuration of each shipment and consult with a regulatory specialist if the chair is bundled with clinical equipment.
Yes. Heading 9402100000 explicitly covers both the chairs and their parts, so replacement hydraulic cylinders, footrests, headrests, and upholstery panels designed for these professional chairs are classified here rather than under the general seat-parts heading (940199). Importers should confirm that parts are specifically designed for professional-use adjustable chairs to support this classification.
