Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 580121 when importing or exporting uncut weft pile fabrics made of cotton. These fabrics are often used in upholstery, clothing, and home textiles. For example, a shipment of cotton velvet fabric for making cushions would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers woven pile fabrics that are not cut, distinguishing them from related codes like 580122, which pertains to woven pile fabrics of synthetic fibers. If your product is a plush cotton fabric with loops that remain intact, 580121 is the correct classification.
When classifying your fabric, consider the construction and fiber content. Uncut weft pile fabrics like terry cloth or velour made from cotton are included here, while cut pile fabrics would not qualify under this HS-6 line.
If you're unsure about your fabric's classification, consult with a customs broker or refer to customs rulings related to similar products to ensure compliance and avoid delays.
