5810.92.10.00 - Badges, emblems and motifs

This HTS category, 5810.92.10.00, specifically covers badges, emblems, and motifs that are embroidered. These are distinct textile articles, typically applied for decorative or identification purposes, and are classified under Chapter 58 as embroidery. The defining characteristic is that these items are pre-formed or cut shapes, rather than embroidery applied directly to a larger piece of fabric or in continuous strips.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 5810.92.90, is crucial. While both fall under "Other embroidery" and are of man-made fibers, 5810.92.10.00 is reserved for discrete, identifiable designs such as logos, crests, or ornamental patterns that are intended to be affixed to garments, accessories, or other items. The sibling category, 5810.92.90, would encompass other forms of embroidery in the piece or strips that do not fit the specific definition of badges, emblems, or motifs.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 5810.92.10.00 relies heavily on the visual identification and intended use of the embroidered article. Examples include embroidered patches for uniforms or sports apparel, decorative motifs for fashion items, or insignia that are clearly designed as separate elements to be attached. The material composition, specifically being of man-made fibers, is also a key defining factor for inclusion in this 10-digit code.
