5407 - Woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, including woven fabrics obtained from materials of heading 5404:

Sub-classifications

Commodity Code
Description

Overview

Category 5407 encompasses woven fabrics manufactured from synthetic filament yarns. This broad category includes fabrics derived from synthetic materials specified in heading 5404, meaning they are predominantly composed of man-made filaments. The key defining characteristic is the use of continuous synthetic filaments as the primary component in the weaving process.

Distinguishing 5407 from its siblings at the root level, such as live animals or other raw materials, is straightforward. This category is specifically focused on processed textile materials, namely woven fabrics, differentiating it from categories dealing with live organisms or less processed textile fibers. Its placement within Section XI, "Textile and Textile Articles," and Chapter 54, "Man-made filaments," clearly delineates its scope within the broader HTS framework.

Within category 5407, further subdivisions are crucial for precise classification. These subcategories are designed to differentiate woven fabrics based on specific material compositions and yarn types. For instance, some subcategories distinguish between fabrics made from high-tenacity yarns versus other types of synthetic filaments. Other breakdowns focus on the percentage of synthetic filaments by weight, the inclusion of other fibers like cotton, or specific fabric constructions derived from strips or the like. These distinctions allow for accurate tariff application based on the precise nature of the woven synthetic fabric.
