6306.90.50.00 - Of other textile materials 🖩

This HTS classification, 6306.90.50.00, covers tarpaulins, awnings, sunblinds, tents (including temporary canopies and similar articles), sails for boats, sailboards or landcraft, and camping goods that are *not* made of cotton. This residual category captures a wide array of made-up textile articles fulfilling specific functional purposes, provided their primary textile component is something other than cotton.

The key differentiator for this category lies in its material composition. While its sibling category, 6306.90.10.00, specifically addresses similar goods made *of cotton*, this classification is for items constructed from other textile materials such as synthetic fibers (e.g., polyester, nylon, polyethylene), man-made fibers (e.g., rayon), or blends where cotton is not the predominant fiber. Therefore, when classifying these types of articles, the importer must first ascertain the primary textile material.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions within this specific HTS code. Classification within 6306.90.50.00 hinges on the correct identification of the article's function (e.g., tarpaulin, tent, sail) and its non-cotton textile composition. For instance, a synthetic tarp used for covering cargo, a nylon camping tent, or a polyester sail for a windsurfer would all fall under this code if they are not primarily made of cotton.
