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 category, HTS Code 5208.59.20.95, encompasses printed woven fabrics of cotton that are not classified under more specific subheadings. To qualify, these fabrics must contain 85 percent or more by weight of cotton and weigh no more than 200 grams per square meter. The key criteria for this "Other" designation is that the printed pattern does not fall into a specifically defined printed type, such as discharge printing.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 5208.59.20.85, is the nature of the printing process. While both are printed cotton fabrics, 5208.59.20.85 specifically refers to fabrics that have undergone discharge printing, a method where a pattern is created by removing color from a dyed fabric. This category, 5208.59.20.95, applies to all other printed cotton fabrics that do not utilize this specific removal technique.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS system, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification relies solely on meeting the criteria of being a printed woven cotton fabric (85% or more cotton, not exceeding 200 g/m²), with a satin weave or twill weave (excluding 3-thread, 4-thread twill, or cross twill), and the printed pattern not being specifically defined as discharge printed. Examples within this category could include fabrics printed using methods like screen printing, digital printing, or roller printing where the color is applied directly to the fabric without removing existing dye.
