5608.90.23.00 - Hammocks 🖩

This HTS category, 5608.90.23.00, specifically classifies hammocks. Hammocks are typically suspended beds or seats made of fabric, netting, or rope, designed for resting or sleeping. The key characteristic for classification here is the article's specific function and form as a hammock, irrespective of whether it is constructed from woven fabric, knotted netting, or other textile materials, as long as it is primarily intended for use as a hammock.

This classification is distinct from its sibling category, 5608.90.27.00, which covers "Other" made-up nets. While hammocks can be constructed using netting, this specific subcategory is reserved for hammocks due to their specialized design and intended use, differentiating them from general-purpose nets or netting used for other applications like fishing or safety barriers.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 5608.90.23.00 rests entirely on whether the textile article meets the definition and intended use of a hammock. The material composition, particularly if it is "Of cotton," is a prerequisite for this specific 8-digit code, as indicated by its hierarchical placement.
