Overview

This HTS category, 5212.12.60.70, encompasses a broad range of "other" woven fabrics of cotton that meet the preceding criteria. Specifically, these fabrics are cotton-based, woven, weigh not more than 200 g/m², and have been bleached. The term "other" signifies that these fabrics do not fall under more specific weave types or designated categories within the broader classification of bleached woven cotton fabrics weighing not more than 200 g/m².

To distinguish this category from its siblings, it's important to note that 5212.12.60.60 specifically covers "Sateens." Therefore, this category, 5212.12.60.70, applies to all other bleached woven cotton fabrics within the specified weight range that are *not* sateens. This would include fabrics with different weaves such as plain weave (if not otherwise specified), basket weave, or other complex weaves that are not explicitly defined elsewhere within the HTS under this chapter.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is determined by the fulfillment of all preceding criteria: being a woven cotton fabric, weighing not more than 200 g/m², having undergone a bleaching process, and not being a sateen. Classification within this category relies on careful examination of the fabric's weave structure and the absence of specific designations that would place it in a more narrowly defined HTS code.
