5309.29 - Other:

This HTS category, 5309.29, encompasses woven fabrics of flax that contain less than 85 percent by weight of flax. Crucially, these fabrics are not unbleached or bleached. This means the classification applies to dyed or otherwise finished flax fabrics falling within the specified flax content threshold.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 5309.21 (Unbleached or bleached), is the state of the fabric. While 5309.21 covers flax woven fabrics that have undergone only bleaching or remain in their natural unbleached state, 5309.29 is reserved for those that have been subjected to further processing, such as dyeing, printing, or other finishing treatments that impart color or modify the fabric's appearance.

Within this category, further subdivisions exist to refine the classification based on the presence of other fibers. These subcategories, such as 5309.29.20.00, account for variations where wool or fine animal hair is present in significant quantities (more than 17 percent by weight). The "Other" subheading within 5309.29 then captures all remaining woven fabrics of flax, less than 85% flax by weight, not unbleached or bleached, and not specifically classified by the presence of significant wool or fine animal hair.
