The US tariff schedule places unbleached cotton terry toweling in a separate 10-digit line (5802101000) from other cotton terry fabrics (5802109000), which include bleached, dyed, and printed states. Importers must confirm the finishing state of the fabric at time of entry to select the correct line, as misclassification between these lines affects the applicable duty rate.
No. Heading 5802 covers terry toweling as a fabric (sold by the meter or in bolt form), not finished towels. Finished terry towels are classified as made-up textile articles under Chapter 63. The distinction turns on whether the goods are in fabric form or have been cut, hemmed, and finished as consumer products.
