5516.42.00.22 - Of a width exceeding 127 cm (613) 🖩

This HTS category, 5516.42.00.22, specifically classifies dyed woven fabrics made from artificial staple fibers, containing less than 85 percent by weight of artificial staple fibers, and mixed primarily or solely with cotton. The defining characteristic for this subclassification is that the fabric has a width exceeding 127 centimeters. These are typically large-format textiles intended for applications where a wider width is functionally required, such as for bedding, draperies, or certain types of apparel manufacturing where minimizing seams is desirable.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 5516.42.00.27, "Other," by the explicit width criterion. While both fall under dyed woven fabrics of artificial staple fibers mixed mainly with cotton, 5516.42.00.22 is narrowly defined by its dimensions, whereas the "Other" category would encompass fabrics of this composition and dye treatment that do not meet the specified width requirement or fall into other unlisted categories at this level.

As a leaf node within the HTS, this category has no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into 5516.42.00.22 is final once the material composition, weave, dye treatment, and width specification are confirmed. Importers and exporters should meticulously verify the fabric's construction and precise width to ensure accurate classification and compliance with customs regulations.
