Overview
This HTS code, 5407.73.20, classifies "Other" woven fabrics that are predominantly composed of synthetic filament yarn. Specifically, these fabrics must contain 85 percent or more by weight of synthetic filaments and be woven from yarns of different colors. The term "other" indicates that these fabrics do not fall under more specific subheadings within the 5407.73 category that may address unique weave types, constructions, or finishing processes.
The primary distinction of this category from its sibling, 5407.73.10, lies in its lack of specific thread count restrictions. While 5407.73.10.00 targets fabrics with particular warp and filling thread counts, this category, 5407.73.20, encompasses all other woven fabrics meeting the criteria of synthetic filament composition and multi-colored yarns, irrespective of their thread density. This makes 5407.73.20 a broader classification for fabrics that are dyed or printed in various colors.
The subcategories under 5407.73.20 further differentiate these fabrics based on their weight per square meter. The two existing subcategories are 5407.73.20.15, which covers fabrics weighing not more than 170 g/m², and 5407.73.20.60, which applies to fabrics weighing more than 170 g/m². This distinction in weight is a key physical characteristic used by customs authorities to ensure accurate classification of these multi-colored synthetic filament woven fabrics.
