5210.39 - Other fabrics:

This HTS category, 5210.39, covers dyed woven fabrics of cotton that contain less than 85% cotton by weight and are mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibers. Crucially, these fabrics weigh no more than 200 grams per square meter. The "Other" designation within this node signifies that these fabrics are not of a plain weave (5210.31) or a specific 3-thread or 4-thread twill weave, including cross twill (5210.32.00.00), which are classified separately.

The distinction from sibling categories is based on the specific weave structure. While 5210.31 is reserved for plain weave constructions, and 5210.32.00.00 for a particular type of twill, 5210.39 encompasses all other dyed woven cotton blends meeting the material composition and weight criteria that do not fall into those explicitly defined weaves. This ensures that a comprehensive range of dyed woven cotton fabrics is accurately classified.

Further subdivisions under 5210.39 exist to refine classification based on specific weave types. The subcategory 5210.39.20 addresses fabrics exhibiting a satin weave or a twill weave, thereby differentiating them from the broader "Other" category within 5210.39. This hierarchical structure allows for precise identification of fabrics based on their construction method, ensuring accuracy in trade documentation and duty assessment.
