5408.33.90.40 - Printcloth (626)

This category, HTS Code 5408.33.90.40, specifically covers "Printcloth" made from artificial filament yarn. Printcloth refers to a type of woven fabric, typically characterized by its plain weave structure and a medium weight, often used for clothing and apparel where a printed design is applied. The fabric is manufactured using yarns of different colors, implying that the yarns themselves may be dyed before weaving, or that the weaving process results in a multicolored effect.

To distinguish this category from its siblings, it's important to note that while all fall under "Other woven fabrics, of yarns of different colors, Other, Other," the specific designation of "Printcloth" targets a particular type of fabric construction and intended use. For instance, 5408.33.90.20 (Poplin or broadcloth) and 5408.33.90.30 (Sheeting) refer to fabrics with specific weave structures and yarn counts that differ from the general characteristics of printcloth. Similarly, 5408.33.90.50 (Satin weave or twill weave) is distinguished by its distinct weave patterns, while 5408.33.90.90 is a residual category for all other fabrics meeting the broader criteria.

As HTS Code 5408.33.90.40 is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories branching from this point. Therefore, the classification concludes with the specific identification of "Printcloth" within the broader context of multicolored woven fabrics of artificial filament yarn. Classification at this level relies heavily on identifying the fabric's specific designation, construction, and common trade nomenclature to differentiate it from other closely related woven fabrics.
