Chapter 54 covers man-made filament yarns, including synthetic filament yarns and artificial filament yarns, as well as yarns and woven fabrics made from these filaments. The man-made filament yarns in this chapter refer to continuous fibers produced by processes such as extrusion, which are different from the man-made staple fibers of Chapter 55. This chapter mainly includes filament yarns, filament woven fabrics, and woven fabrics blended from filaments and staple fibers, etc. Heading 5407 covers woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn, including woven fabrics made from synthetic filament yarns such as polyester, nylon, and polypropylene. Woven fabrics under this heading may be unbleached, bleached, dyed, printed, yarn-dyed, etc., and may contain different proportions of synthetic filament yarn, but must comply with the provisions of the chapter notes and heading text. Code 540754 is a 6-digit subheading. The first 2 digits 54 indicate Chapter 54, man-made filament yarns; digits 3-4, 07, indicate heading 5407, woven fabrics of synthetic filament yarn; digits 5-6, 54, indicate subheading 540754, namely printed woven fabrics of textured polyester yarn, containing >=85% polyester. The 5th digit 5 indicates printed, and the 6th digit 4 indicates textured polyester yarn, with polyester content >=85%. This subheading further refines the processing method and fiber composition. The product is printed woven fabric of textured polyester yarn, containing >=85% polyester, which conforms to the description of heading 5407, and according to the subheading structure, printed, textured polyester yarn, and polyester content >=85% correspond to subheading 540754. If the polyester content is <85%, it may be classified under other subheadings such as 540761 or 540769; if it is unbleached or dyed, etc., it is classified under other subheadings.

🎯 Classification Logic
The core criteria for classification are: 1. The fabric is made of synthetic filament yarn; 2. Polyester content >=85%; 3. The yarn is textured yarn; 4. The processing technique is printed. All these conditions must be met simultaneously to classify under 540754. If polyester content is <85%, classify under 540761 or 540769; if the yarn is not textured yarn, classify under 540751 or 540752, etc.; if the processing technique is not printed, classify under other subheadings. 540751 Unbleached or bleached woven fabrics of textured polyester yarn: The processing technique is unbleached or bleached, not printed, so it is classified under 540751. 540752 Dyed woven fabrics of textured polyester yarn: The processing technique is dyed, not printed, so it is classified under 540752. 540761 Printed woven fabrics of textured polyester yarn containing <85% polyester: The polyester content is less than 85%, which does not meet the content requirement of 540754. 540769 Other printed woven fabrics of polyester: The yarn is not textured yarn or the polyester content is <85%, so it is classified under 540769. Is it made of synthetic filament? Is the polyester content >=85%? Is the yarn textured yarn? Is the processing technique printed? Is it distinguished from adjacent codes by processing technique or composition?

Confused Codes：
540751 - Unbleached or bleached woven fabrics of textured polyester yarn
The processing technique is unbleached or bleached, not printed, so it is classified under 540751.
540752 - Dyed woven fabrics of textured polyester yarn
The processing technique is dyed, not printed, so it is classified under 540752.
The polyester content is less than 85%, which does not meet the content requirement of 540754.
540769 - Other printed woven fabrics of polyester
The yarn is not textured yarn or the polyester content is <85%, so it is classified under 540769.
Self-Check：

✓ Is it distinguished from adjacent codes by processing technique or composition?
❓ FAQ
How can I check the tariff rate for 540754? Tariff rates vary by country, trade agreement, and origin. It is recommended to check the importing country's customs official website or use an official tariff database, such as China Customs' Import and Export Tariff, or obtain the latest rate through a customs broker. What is the difference between 540754 and 540752? 540754 is printed woven fabric of textured polyester yarn, containing >=85% polyester; 540752 is dyed woven fabric of textured polyester yarn, containing >=85% polyester. The main difference lies in the processing technique: printed vs dyed. If the polyester content is 84%, which code should it be classified under? If the polyester content is <85%, it cannot be classified under 540754 and should be classified under 540761 (unbleached or bleached) or 540769 (other), depending on the processing technique and yarn type. What is the difference in classification between textured yarn and ordinary filament yarn? Textured yarn has undergone texturing and has bulkiness, and must be clearly declared as textured yarn when classifying. Ordinary filament yarn is classified under different subheadings, such as 540751 for unbleached or bleached woven fabrics of textured yarn, while 540761 is for other woven fabrics of polyester filament. How should "printed" be described in declaration? It should clearly state "printed", and may indicate whether pre-treatment such as bleaching or dyeing has been carried out. For example, "printed (bleached)". Avoid vague descriptions such as "printed cloth". What uses can fabrics under 540754 be put to? They are often used in clothing, home textiles, decoration, and other fields, such as shirts, skirts, curtains, etc. The specific use does not affect classification, but it must be truthfully declared. If the fabric contains other fibers, how should it be declared? All fiber components and percentages must be declared, and the polyester content must be ensured to be >=85%. If other fibers exceed 15%, it may be classified under other subheadings. What are the consequences of incorrect classification? Incorrect classification may lead to inconsistency with tariffs and regulatory conditions, resulting in supplementary taxes, fines, or even legal risks. It is recommended to consult a professional customs broker or customs classification expert.
