Yes. CBP's classification of 'printed' fabric under Chapter 60 encompasses various surface-printing techniques, including discharge printing (where color is removed from a dyed ground) and resist printing, as long as the design is applied to the fabric surface after formation. The key is that the pattern results from a post-formation surface treatment rather than from using pre-colored yarns.
India has a well-developed textile printing industry with large-scale rotary and digital printing capacity, competitive labor costs, and established cotton supply chains. Indian mills supply a wide range of printed cotton knit fabrics to US apparel and home-textile buyers, particularly for fashion-forward or seasonal print programs where design flexibility and cost efficiency are priorities.
