Overview
This HTS category, 5211, specifically classifies woven fabrics primarily composed of cotton but where cotton constitutes less than 85% of the weight. These fabrics are further characterized by being mixed predominantly with man-made fibers and exceeding a weight of 200 grams per square meter. The goods falling under this heading are substantial, durable woven textiles used in a variety of applications where the combination of cotton's properties with the characteristics of synthetic or artificial fibers, alongside a significant weight, are desired.
Distinguishing this category from its sibling HTS codes within the broader classification system is crucial. While sibling categories might cover live animals, mineral products, or other classes of manufactured goods, HTS 5211 is exclusively dedicated to a very specific type of textile fabric. Its placement within Chapter 52, "Cotton," highlights its primary cotton content, yet the "less than 85 percent" qualifier is key, setting it apart from fabrics where cotton is the predominant fiber by weight and thus classified elsewhere.
The subcategories within HTS 5211 further refine classification based on the fabric's finishing treatments. These subdivisions, such as "Unbleached," "Bleached," "Dyed," "Of yarns of different colors," and "Printed," allow for precise identification based on the aesthetic and functional characteristics imparted after weaving. This granular breakdown aids in accurate duty assessment and trade statistics, ensuring that each specific type of finished fabric is correctly categorized according to its post-manufacturing state.
