Last updated: April 2026 dataPrinted synthetic knit fabrics — where pattern or color is applied to the finished fabric surface rather than built into the yarn or construction — are widely used in fast-fashion apparel, swimwear, and activewear. The US schedule separates printed nylon double-knit (6006340020), printed polyester double-knit (6006340040), other printed double-knit synthetics (6006340060), and other printed synthetic knits (6006340080). China and South Korea are the leading suppliers, with Taiwan and Italy also prominent — the latter two reflecting higher-end fashion and technical fabric segments. Chinese-origin goods in this heading are subject to Section 301 tariffs, and the presence of Italy and Taiwan in the supplier mix underscores the premium-fabric tier that competes on design differentiation.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
A dyed fabric has a uniform color applied throughout the fabric, while a printed fabric has a pattern or design applied to one or both surfaces after the fabric is constructed. The distinction is typically visible by examining whether the color penetrates the full thickness of the fabric (dyed) or sits primarily on the surface in a defined pattern (printed). This classification difference can affect the applicable tariff line and duty rate.
Yes. Printed fabrics bearing licensed or trademarked patterns may be subject to US Customs and Border Protection enforcement under the Tariff Act's provisions on trademark and copyright infringement. Importers should ensure that any licensed prints are accompanied by proper authorization documentation, and that designs do not infringe on registered US intellectual property rights.
