5208.51.20.00 - Certified hand-loomed fabrics

This HTS category, 5208.51.20.00, specifically classifies printed woven fabrics of cotton that meet precise weight and weave criteria. To fall within this designation, the fabric must contain at least 85% cotton by weight, weigh no more than 200 g/m², and exhibit a plain weave structure with a weight not exceeding 100 g/m². The key characteristic here is that the fabric is printed, meaning a pattern or design has been applied to its surface after weaving.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, "Other," under the "Printed" heading (5208.51) by the additional constraint of being of a plain weave and weighing no more than 100 g/m². The sibling category would encompass printed cotton fabrics of 85% or more cotton, weighing not more than 200 g/m², but which do not meet the specific plain weave and weight requirements of this subheading, or perhaps have a different weave structure or a heavier weight within the 200 g/m² limit.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into 5208.51.20.00 is final if the goods meet all the specified criteria: cotton content, overall weight, plain weave structure, weight per square meter, and the presence of printing. Examples include lightweight, printed cotton broadcloth or poplin used for apparel or home furnishings that satisfy these precise technical specifications.
