5408.31.20.90 - Other (629) 🖩

This classification, HTS Code 5408.31.20.90, encompasses "Other" woven fabrics of artificial filament yarn that are unbleached or bleached, and not specifically categorized as poplin, broadcloth, sheeting, printcloth, or those with a satin or twill weave. These fabrics are derived from artificial filament yarn and have undergone a weaving process. The "Other" designation signifies that these are woven fabrics falling under the broader category of unbleached or bleached artificial filament woven fabrics, but do not meet the specific weave or nomenclature definitions of the preceding sibling categories.

The key distinction of this residual category lies in its exclusion of fabrics with defined weave structures such as poplin (plain weave with a high thread count), broadcloth (similar to poplin but often with a crisper finish), sheeting (typically a plain weave used for bedding), printcloth (a plain weave fabric designed for printing), and satin or twill weaves, which are characterized by their distinct interlacing patterns creating a lustrous surface or diagonal rib. If a woven fabric made from artificial filament yarn is unbleached or bleached and does not fit any of these specific descriptions, it will be classified here.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within this specific HTS code. Classification within this heading relies on a thorough examination of the fabric's weave structure, thread count, and specific characteristics to ensure it does not qualify for a more precisely defined sibling category. The absence of specific weave nomenclature or defined uses, beyond those covered by the preceding subheadings, is the defining characteristic for goods falling under this "Other" classification.
