5515.29.00.90 - Other (220)

This category, HTS 5515.29.00.90, encompasses woven fabrics manufactured from synthetic staple fibers, specifically those of acrylic or modacrylic origin, that are not further specified by a more particular description. These fabrics are characterized by their construction from short, discontinuous synthetic fibers, which can lend them various textures and properties depending on the weave, yarn count, and finishing. The "Other" designation indicates that these fabrics do not fit into the more precisely defined subcategories within the "Of acrylic or modacrylic staple fibers" group.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. For instance, fabrics classified under 5515.29.00.15 (Poplin or broadcloth), 5515.29.00.20 (Sheeting), or 5515.29.00.25 (Printcloth) are identified by specific weave structures and typical end-uses. Similarly, categories like 5515.29.00.30 (Cheesecloth; lawns, voiles or batistes) and 5515.29.00.35 (Duck) are defined by their characteristic weave patterns and often specific yarn types or densities. HTS 5515.29.00.90 serves as a residual category for acrylic or modacrylic staple fiber woven fabrics that do not align with these established textile constructions or end-use descriptions.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is finalized at this level based on the composition (acrylic or modacrylic staple fibers) and the fact that the woven fabric's specific construction or intended use does not align with any more detailed provision under heading 5515. Classification within this category relies on excluding the goods from other more specific descriptions within the same heading.
