Last updated: April 2026 dataBleached 3- and 4-thread twill cotton fabrics above 200 g/m²—including cross twill—are the whitened counterparts to the greige twills of heading 520912, used in workwear, uniform fabrics, and as a base for subsequent dyeing or printing. Three 10-digit lines apply: 5209220000, 5209220020 (non-napped), and 5209220040 (napped). China leads US imports under this heading, with Italy and Pakistan also significant; the Italian presence points to premium-finish twill goods for fashion and uniform applications. As with the unbleached twill heading, the napped/non-napped distinction at the 10-digit level requires confirmation of whether a mechanical raising process was applied.

No. If the yarns were dyed before weaving, the fabric classifies under the yarn-dyed twill headings (e.g., 520942), not here. This heading requires that the fabric be bleached but not yarn-dyed or printed. A fabric that was bleached as a greige good and then piece-dyed after weaving would also shift to the dyed headings. The classification hinges on the state of the fabric as imported, not on intermediate processing steps.
Cross twill—where the twill direction reverses at intervals to create a herringbone or broken-twill effect—is explicitly included in this heading alongside standard 3- and 4-thread twills. It does not require a separate classification determination; importers simply need to confirm the fabric meets the weight threshold (over 200 g/m²), the bleached state, and the ≥85% cotton content to classify within the applicable 10-digit line.
