Printed artificial-fiber knit fabrics combine the fluid drape of cellulosic man-made fibers — rayon, modal, lyocell — with surface-applied patterns, making them a staple for women's apparel, resort wear, and lightweight dresses. China dominates US supply, with Italy and Turkey also among the leading sources, the latter two reflecting fashion-oriented and mid-market production respectively. The US schedule covers double-knit/interlock constructions (6006440025) and other printed artificial-fiber knit fabrics (6006440085), and importers must confirm both fiber type and knit construction to select the correct 10-digit line.

Classification under 6006.44 requires that artificial fibers constitute the predominant fiber by weight. If synthetic fibers (e.g., polyester or nylon) exceed artificial fibers in weight, the fabric would instead fall under the synthetic-fiber heading 6006.34. For blended fabrics, a fiber content analysis by weight is essential, and the result should be documented with a laboratory test report or mill certificate to support the classification.
Importers should verify Section 301 tariff applicability for the specific HTS line, ensure the commercial invoice accurately states fiber content and knit construction, and confirm that any printed designs do not infringe on US intellectual property rights. Working with a licensed customs broker familiar with textile classification is advisable given the layered duty and trade-remedy exposure on Chinese-origin textile goods.
