Overview
This HTS classification covers woven fabrics of flax that meet specific width and processing criteria. Specifically, these are fabrics containing 85 percent or more by weight of flax, which have been either unbleached or bleached. The defining characteristic for this particular code is that the fabric has a width exceeding 127 centimeters. This category is designed for bulk rolls of flax fabric intended for further manufacturing or as finished textile articles where the raw material is primarily flax and the fabric has undergone basic processing.
Distinguishing this classification from its sibling, 5309.11.00.90, hinges on the width specification. While both are unbleached or bleached woven fabrics of flax containing 85% or more flax, this code specifically targets fabrics wider than 127 cm. The sibling category, "Other," would encompass similar fabrics that do not meet this specific width requirement. Therefore, the practical distinction for a classifier is the precise measurement of the fabric's width.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification into this code is final based on the material composition (85% or more flax), processing (unbleached or bleached), and the defined width exceeding 127 cm. Importers and exporters must ensure their goods precisely align with these criteria to maintain accurate customs declarations.
