5407.83.00 - Of yarns of different colors

This HTS category, 5407.83.00, specifically classifies woven fabrics of synthetic filaments that contain less than 85 percent by weight of synthetic filaments, are mixed mainly or solely with cotton, and are characterized by yarns of different colors. These fabrics are distinct from their siblings in that the variation in color is achieved through the use of pre-dyed yarns rather than through a bleaching process (5407.81.00), dyeing of the finished fabric (5407.82.00), or printing applied to the fabric surface (5407.84.00).

The goods falling under this classification are those where the color contrast or pattern is an inherent feature of the fabric's construction, achieved by weaving together yarns that were already different colors prior to the weaving process. This contrasts with fabric that is dyed or printed after weaving, where the color is applied to the entire fabric or a portion thereof.

Further subdivisions within this category exist to refine classification based on specific weave structures or common fabric types. These subcategories include Poplin or broadcloth (5407.83.00.10), Sheeting (5407.83.00.20), Printcloth (5407.83.00.30), and Satin weave or twill weave (5407.83.00.40), along with a residual category for "Other" (5407.83.00.90). These subdivisions help in precisely identifying the fabric based on its weave and common trade names, ensuring accurate customs declarations.
