5210.49.80.20 - Jacquard woven (220) 🖩

This HTS category, 5210.49.80.20, specifically covers jacquard woven fabrics of cotton. These fabrics are characterized by their intricate patterns woven directly into the fabric structure using a jacquard loom, resulting in a design that is integral to the weave itself. The material composition dictates that these fabrics contain less than 85 percent by weight of cotton, with the primary admixture being man-made fibers. Furthermore, they must weigh no more than 200 grams per square meter. The "jacquard woven (220)" notation indicates a specific weave type or characteristic that further refines the classification within this broader group.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling category, 5210.49.80.90, which covers "Other" fabrics. While both fall under the umbrella of woven cotton fabrics of different colored yarns and weighing not more than 200 g/m², the differentiating factor here is the specific weave construction. Category 5210.49.80.20 explicitly identifies jacquard woven fabrics, implying a complex, pattern-driven weaving technique that distinguishes it from other woven structures that might fall into the "Other" category.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is complete at this level. Therefore, importers and exporters should ensure that the goods meet all the specified criteria, including the material composition (less than 85% cotton, mixed mainly with man-made fibers), weight (not more than 200 g/m²), use of yarns of different colors, and critically, the presence of a jacquard weave pattern. The "Of number 69 or higher number" sub-heading is also implicitly covered here, indicating the yarn count or fineness of the threads used.
