Last updated: August 2026 dataSofas, sectionals, recliners, and other fabric- or leather-covered seating for residential use define the commercial core of NAICS 337121, a category where flammability standards — particularly California's TB 117-2013 — function as de facto national benchmarks that importers must address before goods reach retail. Frame material (kiln-dried hardwood versus engineered wood), fill composition (high-resilience foam, down, or fiber), and cover fabric (genuine leather, bonded leather, or woven textile) are the specification variables that most affect both pricing tiers and classification. Section 301 tariffs have applied to upholstered furniture of Chinese origin, prompting many brands to shift production to Vietnam, which has become a leading supplier for this category.

TB 117-2013 is a California state standard, not a federal customs requirement, so CBP does not enforce it at the border. However, goods destined for California retailers must comply, and many national retailers apply it universally. Non-compliant shipments can be rejected by buyers after customs clearance, making pre-shipment testing a practical necessity for importers targeting the US market broadly.
For HTS classification, the cover material of upholstered furniture generally does not change the applicable heading — both genuine and bonded leather sofas typically fall under the same Chapter 94 provision. However, bonded leather (a composite of leather scraps and polyurethane) must be accurately described in commercial invoices and marketing materials; misrepresenting it as genuine leather can trigger FTC enforcement action for deceptive trade practices.
