Overview
This HTS classification, 9902.13.91, specifically covers made-up color swatches designed for demonstrating or identifying certified dye colors. These swatches are characterized by their construction from cotton, rectangular shape, and approximate dimensions of 5.08 cm by 20.32 cm. Key identifying features include pinked edges, the use of certified dye colors, and the presence of a bar code indicating the specific color represented. The classification explicitly notes that these goods are "provided for in 6307.90.98," indicating a specific reference point within the broader classification structure for made-up textile articles.
Given that this is a leaf node within Chapter 99, it does not have further subdivisions. Its function within Chapter 99 is to provide a temporary or special classification for these particular color swatches, distinct from the permanent classifications found in other chapters. The purpose of Chapter 99 is to house temporary legislation and modifications, and this entry reflects a specific provision related to these manufactured textile articles. The unique characteristics of these swatches, particularly their intended use for color specification and the inclusion of bar codes, differentiate them from general textile materials or other types of made-up articles that might be classified elsewhere.
