The U.S. Department of Commerce maintains both an antidumping duty order (A-570-092) and a countervailing duty order (C-570-128) covering mattresses from China. Importers of adult and youth mattresses of Chinese origin should carefully review whether their goods may fall within the written scope of these orders.
Scope — simplified screening examples, not full legal scope
The official written scope controls. The examples below are screening references only.
- •Adult mattresses such as twin, full, queen, king, or California king sizes that may be covered
- •Youth mattresses such as crib, toddler, or youth sizes that may be covered
- •Innerspring mattresses containing joined metal springs that may be covered
- •Non-innerspring mattresses made from polyurethane, memory (viscoelastic), latex, or gel foam that may be covered
- •Hybrid mattresses combining foam layers and innerspring units that may be covered
- •Convertible sofa bed, day-bed, roll-away, trundle, or high-riser mattresses that may be covered
- •Mattresses imported as part of a set with a mattress foundation (only the mattress portion may be covered)
- ?Futon mattresses (as defined by the specific tufted, fully stitched construction in the scope) are commonly outside the order
- ?Mattress foundations, boxsprings, platforms, and bases imported alone are commonly not the covered mattress itself
- ?Seating furniture and sofa bed mechanisms imported without the mattress are typically not the covered article
- ?Mattresses below the stated minimum youth/adult dimensions may fall outside the scope
- ?Pillows, toppers, and bedding accessories that are not the mattress core assembly are commonly excluded
Who it affects
This typically matters for importers, retailers, and wholesalers bringing in adult or youth mattresses of Chinese origin, including foam, innerspring, and hybrid types, whether imported alone, in sets, or built into furniture.
What the duty means
AD and CVD duties are collected as cash deposits at entry; rates vary by exporter/producer and by administrative review and can be high. Because both an AD and a CVD order exist, both deposits may apply. A 0% cash-deposit rate is NOT an exemption — the order still applies and entries must be declared.
Importer checklist — how to assess your risk
- ☐Gather the commercial invoice with a full product description of the mattress type and construction.
- ☐Collect product photos and spec sheets showing core materials (innerspring, foam, or hybrid).
- ☐Document material composition and mattress dimensions to compare against scope thresholds.
- ☐Confirm the intended use and product category (adult, youth, crib, sofa bed, etc.).
- ☐Obtain country-of-origin support documentation for the finished mattress.
- ☐Identify the specific manufacturer, producer, and exporter names and their exact combination.
- ☐Determine the correct HTS classification for screening purposes only.
- ☐Consult a licensed customs broker or trade counsel to confirm scope — do not rely only on supplier statements.
- ☐Verify the applicable cash-deposit rate against current Commerce results and CBP AD/CVD messages before filing.
Risks to watch
- ⚠Circumvention or transshipment findings if Chinese mattresses are routed through third countries.
- ⚠Scope inquiries where Commerce may examine whether a specific mattress or set falls within the order.
- ⚠Using an incorrect exporter/producer combination, which can trigger a higher all-others or China-wide rate.
- ⚠Misdeclaration or failure to declare AD/CVD, which can lead to penalties and retroactive duties.
