5210.59.60.20 - Oxford cloth (227) 🖩

This HTS classification covers printed Oxford cloth of cotton. Specifically, it applies to woven fabrics that contain less than 85 percent by weight of cotton, are mixed mainly or solely with man-made fibers, and weigh no more than 200 g/m². The defining characteristic here is the printing application, distinguishing these fabrics from those that are unprinted, dyed, or otherwise finished.

Within the "Printed" category at this level, this specific subheading differentiates itself from its sibling, 5210.59.60.90, which is designated for "Other" printed fabrics not falling under the criteria of subheading 5210.59.60.20. The criteria that place a fabric into this subheading revolve around the specific weave structure and composition requirements of Oxford cloth and the subsequent printing process.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the classification is finalized at this level based on the combination of fabric construction (Oxford cloth), cotton content (less than 85%), weight (not more than 200 g/m²), and the presence of a printed design. Importers and exporters should ensure the physical characteristics and finishing process of their goods precisely match these specifications to correctly classify their Oxford cloth.
