5514.41.00.20 - Poplin or broadcloth (614) 🖩

This HTS classification covers poplin or broadcloth woven fabrics made primarily from synthetic staple fibers, specifically those containing less than 85% synthetic staple fibers by weight, and mixed mainly or solely with cotton. These fabrics must exceed 170 g/m² in weight and be of a plain weave construction. The "Printed" designation indicates that the fabric has undergone a printing process to impart a design or pattern.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 5514.41.00.90, which covers plain weave duck fabrics. While both fall under the broader category of printed woven fabrics of synthetic staple fibers, this classification is specifically for poplin or broadcloth weaves, which are characterized by their fine, smooth texture and often tighter weave compared to duck fabric. The primary distinction lies in the weave structure and the resulting fabric appearance and hand.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code depends on meeting all the preceding criteria: being a printed fabric, of a plain weave, composed of less than 85% synthetic staple fibers mixed with cotton, exceeding 170 g/m², and specifically identified as poplin or broadcloth. This designation is crucial for accurate import and export declaration.
