5407.53.20.40 - Other (619) 🖩

This HTS category, 5407.53.20.40, specifically classifies "Other" woven fabrics within the broader group of fabrics containing 85 percent or more by weight of textured polyester filaments and where the yarns are of different colors. These are characterized by their construction and material composition, differentiating them from other categories at this level by the absence of specific features addressed by sibling categories.

The defining characteristic of this "Other" classification lies in what it *excludes* from more specific descriptions. While the parent categories establish the base material (textured polyester filaments, in differing colors) and weight limit, this node captures woven fabrics that do not fit into any more narrowly defined sub-classifications at this particular level of the tariff schedule. This often includes fabrics with unique weave patterns, finishes, or intended uses that are not explicitly called out elsewhere in the hierarchy.

Given that this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the focus remains on understanding the precise criteria that place a woven fabric into this classification. Importers and exporters should carefully examine the physical properties and construction of their goods to ensure they do not meet the criteria for a more specific sibling category, such as 5407.53.20.20 (Flat fabrics), before classifying them under this residual "Other" designation.
