Overview
This category, HTS 5310.90.00.00, encompasses woven fabrics of jute or other textile bast fibers (as defined in heading 5303) that do not meet the specific criteria for classification under the "Unbleached" subcategory (5310.10.00). Essentially, it serves as a residual category for all other woven fabrics made from these specific bast fibers, provided they are not in their raw, unbleached state.
Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 5310.10.00, is crucial. While 5310.10.00 exclusively covers jute or other bast fiber woven fabrics that are in their unbleached form, this category (5310.90.00.00) captures such fabrics once they have undergone processes such as bleaching, dyeing, printing, or any other finishing treatment beyond the raw, unbleached state. The presence of color, pattern, or any form of chemical or physical alteration to the natural fiber's state would lead to classification within this "Other" category.
As a leaf node, this category has no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on the material (jute or other textile bast fibers), the construction (woven fabric), and importantly, its treatment. If a woven fabric of jute or other textile bast fibers is not unbleached, it will fall under this residual category, covering a wide array of finished or semi-finished textile products used in various industrial and commercial applications.
