5212.24.60 - Other

This HTS category, 5212.24.60, encompasses "Other" woven fabrics of cotton that meet specific weight and yarn composition criteria. To fall under this heading, the fabric must be composed of cotton, weigh more than 200 grams per square meter, and be constructed from yarns of different colors. This implies a fabric where the color variation is inherent to the weaving process, rather than achieved through subsequent dyeing or printing of the finished fabric.

It's crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling, 5212.24.10. While both are "Other woven fabrics of cotton" weighing more than 200 g/m² and featuring yarns of different colors, 5212.24.10 specifically covers fabrics containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair. Therefore, 5212.24.60 applies to fabrics where cotton is the dominant fiber and there is no significant presence of wool or fine animal hair in the yarn composition.

Within the scope of 5212.24.60, two subcategories further refine the classification. The first, 5212.24.60.10, addresses fabrics where the cotton yarns are mixed mainly or solely with wool or fine animal hair, indicating a blended yarn construction. The subsequent "Other" category serves as a residual for fabrics that meet the overarching criteria of 5212.24.60 but do not qualify for the more specific mixed yarn designation.
