About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This classification, HTS 5208.49.60.90, encompasses woven fabrics of cotton that are not otherwise specified within the "Of yarns of different colors" subcategory. To qualify, these fabrics must contain at least 85% cotton by weight and weigh no more than 200 grams per square meter. The distinguishing feature of this particular branch of the classification is its exclusion of specific weave types like Oxford cloth and Jacquard weaves, which are designated under separate, sibling subheadings.

Essentially, this "Other" category serves as a residual classification for woven cotton fabrics of different colored yarns that do not fit into more precisely defined weave structures or patterns at this level of detail. Examples might include simple plain weaves or twill weaves where the color variation is achieved through the use of differently colored warp and weft yarns, but the overall construction doesn't align with the specific characteristics of other listed categories.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. The classification is therefore determined solely by the material composition (85% or more cotton), weight (not more than 200 g/m²), the presence of yarns of different colors, and the exclusion of more specifically defined weave types.
