Chapter 52: Cotton
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 521019 when importing or exporting unbleached woven fabrics made from cotton and man-made fibers, weighing 200 grams per square meter or less. For example, if you're shipping a roll of unbleached cotton-polyester blend fabric for use in apparel, this code applies.
This code specifically covers woven fabrics that contain less than 85% cotton by weight, mixed primarily with synthetic fibers. In contrast, HS-6 521012 applies to similar fabrics that are bleached, which can affect your classification and duty rates.
Fabrics classified under HS-6 521019 are often used in lightweight applications such as linings, curtains, or casual wear. If your fabric is dyed or printed, you would need to look at different codes that account for those characteristics.
When determining if HS-6 521019 is the right code, consider the fabric's weight and composition. If your product is a woven fabric that is unbleached and weighs 200g/m2 or less, this is likely the correct classification.
