5407.82.00 - Dyed

This HTS category, 5407.82.00, specifically covers woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn that have been dyed. These fabrics contain less than 85 percent by weight of synthetic filaments, with the remaining portion being primarily cotton. The defining characteristic of this classification is that the entire fabric, or a substantial portion thereof, has undergone a dyeing process to achieve a uniform color or shade.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings, 5407.81.00 covers fabrics that are either unbleached or have been bleached, but not dyed. Category 5407.83.00 is for woven fabrics made from yarns of different colors, which creates a patterned effect through the combination of these colored yarns, rather than a uniform dyeing of the finished fabric. Category 5407.84.00, on the other hand, includes fabrics that have been printed, meaning a pattern is applied after the fabric has been manufactured.

Subdivisions exist within 5407.82.00 to further refine the classification based on specific weave structures or fabric types. These include classifications for poplin or broadcloth, sheeting, printcloth, and satin or twill weaves, as well as a general "other" category. These subcategories allow for more granular identification based on the fabric's construction and potential end-use, ensuring accurate duty assessment.
