5208.52.40.65 - Other (315)

This HTS classification, 5208.52.40.65, specifically covers printed woven cotton fabrics that are plain weave, weigh more than 100 g/m², and are categorized as "other" within the printcloth designation. These are cotton fabrics, consisting of 85% or more cotton by weight, and weighing not more than 200 g/m². The "other" designation indicates that these fabrics do not fall under more specific printcloth sub-classifications based on the type of print.

The key differentiator for this "Other (315)" category, compared to its sibling "Discharge printed (315)" (5208.52.40.55), lies in the printing method. While both are printed printcloth fabrics meeting the weight and weave criteria, this category encompasses all printed patterns and designs that are not specifically classified as discharge prints. This implies a broader range of printing techniques or designs not otherwise specified at this level of detail.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is definitive for printcloth fabrics that are cotton, plain weave, printed with various methods other than discharge printing, and meet the specified weight parameters. Importers and exporters should ensure their goods precisely match these criteria to avoid misclassification.
