5311.00.30.20 - Other (220) 🖩

This classification, HTS Code 5311.00.30.20, encompasses woven fabrics manufactured from vegetable textile fibers or paper yarn, specifically falling under the "Other" designation within fabrics containing both cotton and man-made fibers, and which are subject to cotton restraints. This broad category is intended for woven fabrics that do not fit the more specific descriptions of poplin/broadcloth (5311.00.30.05), sheeting (5311.00.30.10), or printcloth (5311.00.30.15). It serves as a residual category for woven fabrics that meet the general criteria of the chapter and section but lack the specific weave or construction characteristics of the preceding sibling categories.

The distinction between this category and its siblings lies primarily in the fabric's construction and intended use, as defined by established textile terminology. Poplin and broadcloth are characterized by a plain weave and a specific warp and weft yarn count relationship. Sheeting, as the name suggests, is typically designed for bedding and often exhibits a plain weave with a consistent warp and weft. Printcloth is also a plain weave fabric, often of a finer count, intended for printing designs. When a woven fabric of vegetable fibers, containing cotton and man-made fibers, and subject to cotton restraints, does not conform to these specific weave structures or common fabric types, it is classified under this "Other" category.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the focus remains on correctly identifying fabrics that meet the broader criteria of containing cotton and man-made fibers, being subject to cotton restraints, and not falling into the more narrowly defined woven fabric types at the same level. Classification within this code requires careful examination of the fabric's construction, material composition, and whether it is subject to any specific trade restraints related to cotton content.
