Overview
This HTS category, HTS 5208.29.80, encompasses bleached woven fabrics of cotton, weighing no more than 200 g/m², that are composed of 85% or more cotton by weight and are made from yarns numerically higher than number 69. These are specifically "other" fabrics within the broader "bleached" and "other fabrics" classifications, meaning they do not fall into the specific yarn count categories defined by the sibling HTS codes.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. HTS 5208.29.40 covers fabrics made from yarns of number 42 or lower, while HTS 5208.29.60 pertains to fabrics constructed from yarns numbered 43 through 68. Therefore, HTS 5208.29.80 is reserved for those fabrics woven with finer cotton yarns exceeding the thresholds set by its immediate siblings.
Within HTS 5208.29.80, further subdivision exists to accommodate specific fabric constructions. The subcategories, 5208.29.80.20 for Oxford cloth and 5208.29.80.90 for "Other," allow for more granular classification based on the weave structure and resulting fabric characteristics, ensuring precise identification of the imported or exported material.
