Last updated: April 2026 dataCotton looped pile knit fabrics — the base material for terry cloth toweling, bathrobes, and similar absorbent goods — enter the US under a single 10-digit line (6001210000). Vietnam leads US supply under this heading, followed by India and Mexico, reflecting the shift of cotton terry fabric production toward Southeast Asia and South Asia over the past decade. Fiber content verification is important at entry, as blended fabrics with man-made fiber content above threshold levels may reclassify to the man-made fiber heading (6001.22).
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Classification follows the essential character rule based on chief weight. If man-made fibers exceed cotton by weight, the fabric would generally classify under 6001.22 (man-made fiber looped pile) rather than 6001.21. Importers should obtain fiber composition test reports from mills and confirm the chief-weight determination before filing entry, particularly for blended terry constructions.
Fabric originating in Mexico may qualify for USMCA preferential tariff treatment, provided it meets the applicable textile-specific rules of origin — typically a yarn-forward requirement meaning the yarn must be formed in a USMCA country. Importers must obtain a valid USMCA certification of origin from the Mexican supplier and verify that the fabric's production chain satisfies the tariff shift rule.
