What determines the tariff number?
- Material of frame. Ironing board frames made from steel or cast iron are classified differently than those made from wood or bamboo. The base material is a key determinant of the tariff number.
- Metal goods vs. wood goods. Wooden frames fall under the category of wooden and bamboo goods. Steel frames are classified as household articles made from iron or steel. This distinction is decisive.
- Construction type and accessories. Simple designs differ from specialised versions (e.g. with metal legs, padded cover, or additional accessories). The exact construction influences the classification.
