About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS classification covers woven fabrics predominantly composed of artificial staple fibers, where the artificial staple fiber content is less than 85% by weight and is primarily blended with wool or fine animal hair. These fabrics are characterized by their construction as woven textiles. The "unbleached or bleached" designation further refines the scope, indicating that the fabrics at this stage have not undergone dyeing or printing processes beyond basic preparation.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 5516.31.05, by the proportion of wool or fine animal hair. While both are woven fabrics of artificial staple fibers mixed with wool or fine animal hair, this specific node (5516.31.10) applies when the wool or fine animal hair content is *less than* 36% by weight. The sibling category, in contrast, covers fabrics containing 36% or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification at this level is determined by the combination of the fabric being woven, the predominant fiber being artificial staple fiber (less than 85% by weight), the presence of wool or fine animal hair, and the specific percentage range of wool or fine animal hair, along with the unbleached or bleached state of the fabric.
