Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 521029 when importing or exporting bleached woven fabrics made from cotton and man-made fibers, weighing 200 grams per square meter or less. For example, a shipment of lightweight bleached cotton-polyester blend fabric for summer clothing falls under this code.

This code specifically applies to fabrics that contain less than 85% cotton and are primarily mixed with synthetic fibers. In contrast, HS-6 521012 covers similar fabrics but with different weaving patterns, which may affect classification.

When classifying fabrics, it’s important to note the weight and fiber composition. While HS-6 521021 includes unbleached fabrics, HS-6 521029 is for those that are bleached, making it crucial for maintaining accurate trade documentation.

If you're unsure whether your fabric qualifies, consider the end use and composition. For instance, a bleached cotton-viscose blend fabric used for upholstery would fit this HS-6, while a heavier cotton fabric would not.
