Overview
This HTS category, 5208.43.00.00, specifically classifies woven fabrics of cotton that contain 85% or more cotton by weight and do not exceed 200 g/m² in weight. The defining characteristic of this subcategory is the construction of the fabric: it must be a 3-thread or 4-thread twill weave, which includes cross twill patterns. These fabrics are made from yarns of different colors, contributing to a patterned or striped appearance inherent in the weaving process.
It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings. Category 5208.41 and 5208.42 both fall under "Of yarns of different colors" but are specifically designated as plain weaves, differing from the twill structure required here. Category 5208.49 encompasses "Other fabrics" of colored yarns, which would apply to any woven cotton fabrics meeting the weight and cotton content criteria but not conforming to the plain weave or the specific twill weaves of 5208.43.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 5208.43.00.00 depends solely on the confirmation of a 3-thread or 4-thread twill weave (including cross twill) in a woven cotton fabric weighing no more than 200 g/m² and composed of 85% or more cotton by weight, utilizing yarns of different colors.
