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, specifically 5516.41.00.50, pertains to woven fabrics of artificial staple fibers that contain less than 85 percent by weight of artificial staple fibers, with the remainder being cotton, and are presented in an unbleached or bleached state. The "Duck" designation within this code indicates a specific type of plain-weave fabric, typically characterized by its durability and a plain weave construction where the warp and weft yarns are of equal or nearly equal thickness.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by its specific weave construction and the designation "Duck." For instance, sibling categories might cover poplin or broadcloth (5516.41.00.10), printcloth (5516.41.00.30), or cheesecloth, lawns, voiles or batistes (5516.41.00.40), each representing different weave structures and weights. Other siblings like those with satin or twill weaves (5516.41.00.60) differ due to their distinct interlacing patterns.

As this node represents a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is finalized at this level based on the fabric's composition (less than 85% artificial staple fibers, predominantly cotton), its state (unbleached or bleached), and its specific type as "Duck" fabric, which implies a plain, relatively coarse weave used for durable goods.
