Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 521223 when importing or exporting dyed woven cotton fabrics that weigh more than 200 grams per square meter. For example, if you're shipping a roll of heavy cotton canvas used for making tents, this code applies.
This code falls under the heading for other woven fabrics of cotton, which includes various types of cotton textiles not specified elsewhere. In contrast, HS-6 521221 covers lighter dyed cotton fabrics weighing 200g/m2 or less.
Fabrics classified under HS-6 521223 are typically used in applications requiring durability, such as upholstery, heavy garments, or outdoor gear. If your product is a thick, dyed cotton fabric for making workwear, this is the right classification.
