5212.13.10.20 - Combed (410)

This classification category specifically covers woven fabrics of cotton that are dyed and weigh no more than 200 grams per square meter. Crucially, these fabrics are further distinguished by containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair. This material composition is a key determinant for distinguishing these woven cotton fabrics from those composed solely of cotton.

Within this level, the primary distinction is between "Combed" and "Not combed" fabrics. This HTS code (5212.13.10.20) applies to the "Combed" variant, indicating that the cotton fibers used in the yarn have undergone a combing process. Combing removes short fibers and impurities, resulting in a smoother, stronger, and more lustrous yarn which, in turn, creates a fabric with superior quality and appearance.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to explore. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on the precise combination of material composition (cotton with 36% or more wool/fine animal hair), weight (not more than 200 g/m²), dye treatment (dyed), and the processing of the cotton fibers (combed). Importers must ensure all these criteria are met to correctly classify their goods under this specific HTS code.
