5514.30 - Of yarns of different colors:

This HTS category, 5514.30, specifically addresses woven fabrics composed of synthetic staple fibers. A key defining characteristic is that these fabrics contain less than 85% by weight of synthetic staple fibers, and are primarily blended with cotton. Furthermore, these woven fabrics must exceed a weight of 170 grams per square meter. The presence of yarns of different colors is also a defining feature within this classification.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings, the parent node "Woven fabrics of synthetic staple fibers, containing less than 85 percent by weight of such fibers, mixed mainly or solely with cotton, of a weight exceeding 170 g/m²:" specifies the general characteristics. The sibling categories, ": Unbleached or bleached:", ": Dyed:", and ": Printed:", differentiate based on the fabric's post-production treatment of color. This node, 5514.30, then further refines the classification by focusing on fabrics that *are* of different colored yarns, regardless of whether they are subsequently bleached, dyed, or printed.

Within this classification, further subcategories exist to provide more granular detail. These subcategories, such as those distinguishing between plain weave, twill weaves (including cross twill), and other woven fabric types, all specifically concerning polyester staple fibers, allow for precise identification based on the weave construction and the dominant synthetic fiber type. This detailed breakdown is crucial for accurate tariff application, reflecting the specific construction and material composition of the woven fabric.
