6002.90.80.80 - Other (222)

This classification, HTS 6002.90.80.80, encompasses "Other" knitted or crocheted fabrics that fall within the broader scope of Chapter 60, specifically those with a width not exceeding 30 cm and containing 5 percent or more of elastomeric yarn or rubber thread, excluding those covered by heading 6001. Within this "Other" designation, it specifically refers to knitted or crocheted fabrics that do not fit the criteria of any more specific sub-designations at this level. This serves as a residual category for fabrics that meet the general parameters of heading 6002 but are not explicitly defined as open-work, warp knit fabrics.

The key differentiator for this category lies in what it *excludes* rather than what it *includes* in a positive sense. While sibling categories like 6002.90.80.20 specifically define open-work warp knit fabrics, this classification captures all other knitted or crocheted fabrics of the specified width and elastomeric content that do not meet that particular structural characteristic. Therefore, if a fabric is knitted or crocheted, has a width not exceeding 30 cm, contains the specified percentage of elastomeric yarn or rubber thread, and is not an open-work warp knit fabric, it will fall under this residual "Other" classification.

As this node represents a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification decisions at this point would rely on a thorough examination of the fabric's physical characteristics against the detailed descriptions of the parent and sibling categories to ensure accurate placement. The emphasis is on ensuring the fabric meets the general criteria of heading 6002 and does not qualify for any more specific or previously defined classifications within the tariff schedule.
