Overview
This classification applies to woven cotton fabrics that are not combed and meet specific weight and printing criteria. To fall under 5212.25.10.10, the fabric must be other woven cotton, weigh more than 200 grams per square meter, and be printed. Crucially, these fabrics must also contain 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair. This detail differentiates them from pure cotton fabrics within similar categories.
The key distinguishing factor for this sub-heading, 5212.25.10.10, lies in its composition. It specifically targets printed woven cotton fabrics exceeding 200 g/m² that are *not combed* and incorporate a significant percentage (36% or more) of wool or fine animal hair. This contrasts directly with its sibling category, 5212.25.10.20, which covers *combed* woven cotton fabrics meeting the same weight, printing, and wool/fine animal hair content requirements. The "not combed" designation is a critical physical characteristic for correct classification.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS system, there are no further subcategories beneath 5212.25.10.10. Therefore, the classification is definitive based on the criteria of being a printed, uncombed woven cotton fabric weighing over 200 g/m², and containing at least 36% wool or fine animal hair by weight. Importers and exporters should ensure all these conditions are met to accurately classify their goods under this specific HTS code.
