Overview
This category, HTS Code 5407.84.00, covers woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn that are printed. To fall within this classification, the fabric must contain less than 85 percent by weight of synthetic filaments, with the remainder being mixed mainly or solely with cotton. The defining characteristic is the presence of printed patterns or designs applied to the fabric.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings, 5407.81.00 (Unbleached or bleached), 5407.82.00 (Dyed), and 5407.83.00 (Of yarns of different colors), hinges on the method of coloration or design application. While dyed fabrics are uniformly colored, and fabrics of different colored yarns involve the use of yarns that are themselves colored prior to weaving, this category specifically addresses fabrics where a pattern has been applied after weaving through printing processes.
The subcategories under 5407.84.00 provide further specificity based on the weave structure and general type of printed fabric. These include classifications for poplin or broadcloth, sheeting, printcloth, and fabrics with a satin or twill weave, as well as a residual category for other printed fabrics not otherwise specified. This granular breakdown allows for more precise classification based on the fabric's construction and intended use.
