Overview
This classification, HTS 5701.90.10.90, pertains to knotted carpets and other textile floor coverings that are made up and feature pile inserted and knotted during the weaving or knitting process. Crucially, these items are not made from cotton or man-made fibers. The term "other textile materials" signifies that the pile or ground material, or both, are derived from fibers not specifically enumerated in preceding sibling categories, such as wool, animal hair (other than from horses), silk, or bast fibers.
The distinction from sibling categories lies solely in the material composition. HTS 5701.90.10.20 specifically covers knotted carpets of cotton, while HTS 5701.90.10.30 is for those made from man-made fibers. This particular classification, "Other," acts as a residual category for knotted carpets with inserted pile that fall outside the defined cotton and man-made fiber classifications.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to explore. The classification is determined by the presence of knotted construction with inserted pile during weaving or knitting and the exclusion of cotton and man-made fibers as the primary textile materials. Examples might include hand-knotted rugs crafted from pure silk, fine wool, or a blend of natural fibers not otherwise specified.
