Last updated: August 2026 dataSubheading Note 1 to Chapter 60 defines a specific category of warp-knit fabrics — principally certain open-work and net-type constructions — that are carved out into heading 600535 before the broader synthetic-fiber warp-knit subheadings apply, making correct note interpretation the first classification step for any synthetic warp-knit fabric. South Korea and Germany are among the leading suppliers, reflecting strong technical textile manufacturing capacity in both countries. All US imports enter under tariff line 6005350000, and goods from South Korea may be eligible for preferential treatment under the KORUS free trade agreement if origin requirements are met.

Subheading Note 1 defines fabrics that qualify as 'warp knit fabrics specified in subheading note 1' — typically certain open-work, net, or lace-type warp-knit constructions meeting specific structural criteria. Fabrics meeting that note are classified in 600535 (for synthetic fibers) rather than in the 600536–600539 series. Importers should review the note text carefully and, if needed, request a binding ruling from CBP to confirm whether a specific fabric construction qualifies.
The analysis must start with Subheading Note 1: if the fabric meets the note's structural definition, it is classified in 600535 regardless of its bleaching or dyeing state. Only fabrics that do not meet the note fall into the 600536–600539 series based on their finishing state (unbleached/bleached, dyed, yarn-of-different-colors, or printed). When the construction is borderline, a CBP binding ruling or consultation with a licensed customs broker is advisable before filing.
