Overview
This category, HTS 5806.39.30, encompasses narrow woven fabrics and narrow fabrics assembled with adhesive, excluding those specifically classified under heading 5807. The "Other" designation here specifically refers to woven fabrics that are not exclusively composed of wool, fine animal hair, or vegetable fibers other than cotton. These fabrics will therefore be made from textile materials not otherwise specified in their sibling categories.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. HTS 5806.39.10.00 is for narrow woven fabrics of wool or fine animal hair, and HTS 5806.39.20.00 is for those made from vegetable fibers, excluding cotton. This current sub-level, HTS 5806.39.30, is the residual category for narrow woven fabrics composed of other textile materials, which could include synthetic fibers, man-made fibers, or blends not falling under the aforementioned categories.
The subcategories under 5806.39.30 further refine the classification based on the primary material composition. Specifically, 5806.39.30.10 is designated for fabrics containing 85 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. The remaining goods that do not meet this silk criterion will fall under the "Other" sub-provision within this already specific category, requiring a careful assessment of their predominant textile fiber content to determine the final classification.
