5112.30.20.00 - Tapestry fabrics and upholstery fabrics of a weight not exceeding 140 g/m2 (414)

This HTS category, 5112.30.20.00, specifically classifies tapestry and upholstery fabrics that are composed of wool or fine animal hair, combed, and are mixed mainly or solely with man-made staple fibers. The defining characteristic for this subheading is its weight, which must not exceed 140 grams per square meter. These fabrics are designed for decorative and functional purposes in interior design, such as wall hangings or furniture coverings.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings based on weight. For instance, HTS code 5112.30.10.00 covers tapestry and upholstery fabrics of similar composition but with a significantly higher weight, exceeding 300 grams per square meter. Another sibling, 5112.30.30.00, encompasses "Other" fabrics within the broader woven fabric category, which would not fall under the specific weight limitations of tapestry or upholstery fabrics.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 5112.30.20.00 hinges precisely on the material composition (combed wool or fine animal hair mixed with man-made staple fibers) and the specified weight not exceeding 140 g/m². Accurate weight determination and confirmation of the primary fiber content are essential for correct classification under this heading.
