6213.90.07.00 - Other (859)

This HTS category, 6213.90.07.00, specifically classifies handkerchiefs made from textile materials other than cotton, wool, man-made fibers, or silk. This broad "other" category captures handkerchiefs composed of a blend of fibers where silk or silk waste does not constitute 70 percent or more by weight, or handkerchiefs made from other natural fibers like linen or ramie, or even certain novel synthetic materials not specifically covered elsewhere. The key distinguishing factor is the material composition, placing it outside the more specific silk-based classifications.

Handkerchiefs classified under 6213.90.07.00 are differentiated from their siblings primarily by their material content. For instance, they are distinct from handkerchiefs of cotton (6213.20) and those of man-made fibers (6213.30). Crucially, this code applies to handkerchiefs of silk or silk waste that do *not* meet the 70% or more by weight threshold for silk or silk waste, differentiating it from sibling category 6213.90.05.00.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification under this code relies entirely on the precise interpretation of the material composition of the handkerchief, ensuring it falls within the "other textile materials" while not meeting the more specific criteria of other handkerchief categories at this level.
