5407.54.00.20 - Flat fabrics (619)

This HTS classification covers printed woven fabrics composed of synthetic filament yarn, specifically those containing 85 percent or more by weight of textured polyester filaments, and weighing no more than 170 grams per square meter. The "printed" designation signifies that these fabrics have undergone a printing process, applying designs or patterns. This category focuses on lightweight, printed polyester fabrics where the visual design is a key characteristic.

This specific category, 5407.54.00.20, is distinguished from its sibling category, 5407.54.00.40 (Other), by the explicit inclusion of printed fabrics. While the sibling category encompasses other woven fabrics meeting the same weight and filament composition criteria but without specific printing as their defining feature, this node isolates printed varieties. The distinction hinges on the presence and prominence of printing as a manufacturing process and identifying characteristic of the fabric.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is final at this level, based on the material composition (85% or more textured polyester filaments), yarn type (synthetic filament), construction (woven), finishing (printed), and weight (not more than 170 g/m²). For practical classification, ensuring all these criteria are met is crucial for accurate import and export declarations.
