About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 5212.21.60.50, specifically classifies sateens within the broader group of other woven cotton fabrics. Sateens are characterized by their satin weave construction, which results in a smooth, lustrous surface, typically achieved by having warp yarns float over four or more weft yarns. This smooth face is the defining characteristic that distinguishes sateens from other woven cotton fabrics. The weight of these fabrics must exceed 200 g/m², and they are classified as unbleached.

Within the "Satin weave or twill weave" level, this code is distinct from its sibling category, 5212.21.60.60, which encompasses all other woven cotton fabrics fitting the preceding criteria but not specifically identified as sateen. Therefore, for accurate classification, it is crucial to identify the weave construction. The smooth, glossy appearance inherent to the satin weave of sateen is the primary determinant for classification under this specific HTS code.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification decisions at this point rely on a thorough examination of the fabric's weave structure to confirm it is a sateen, alongside verifying its composition as cotton, its weight above 200 g/m², and its unbleached state.
