Last updated: August 2026 dataPakistan and India dominate US imports of this mid-weight bleached plain-weave cotton fabric, which spans a weight band of over 100 g/m² up to 200 g/m² and must contain at least 85% cotton by weight. The US tariff schedule subdivides the heading by thread count and end-use construction type — poplin/broadcloth (5208224020, 5208226020, 5208228020), sheeting (5208224040, 5208226040), printcloth (5208226060), and cheesecloth (5208224090, 5208226090, 5208228090) — making precise classification critical for duty assessment. Importers sourcing from China should note that cotton woven fabrics from that origin have been subject to Section 301 tariffs, adding a cost layer that affects sourcing decisions across the supply chain.

The US schedule breaks this heading into three thread-count bands — 42 or fewer threads per cm, 43–68 threads per cm, and 69 or more threads per cm — and then further subdivides each band by construction type (poplin/broadcloth, sheeting, printcloth, cheesecloth). Importers must confirm both the thread count and the specific fabric construction before selecting the correct 10-digit line.
No. Cheesecloth and sheeting are classified under separate 10-digit lines even when they share the same thread-count band. For example, at the 43–68 thread-count level, sheeting is covered by 5208226040 while cheesecloth falls under 5208226090. Misidentifying the construction type is a common classification error for this heading.
