Last updated: August 2026 dataPrinted plain-weave fabrics in this heading combine a simple over-under interlacement with surface-applied color, making them a workhorse substrate for apparel, quilting, and home-textile end uses. Brazil and India are the top US suppliers, with Italy also a notable source — a supplier mix that spans both commodity-grade and design-forward printed goods. The four US tariff lines (5211510020, 5211510030, 5211510050, 5211510090) differentiate by construction type, including poplin/broadcloth, sheeting (napped and non-napped), and dark-fabric constructions, so the fabric's finishing and intended end use directly drive the correct 10-digit classification.

Poplin and broadcloth (5211510020) are characterized by a fine, tight plain weave with a slight rib effect and are typically used in shirting and dress fabrics. Sheeting constructions (5211510030 and 5211510050) are wider, more open plain weaves intended for bedding or lining applications. The distinction rests on thread count, yarn count, and commercial end use, and mills should provide fabric specifications to support the correct line.
Under Chapter 52 note provisions, a fabric is considered 'printed' when the print covers the full width or a substantial portion of the fabric surface. Border-only or selvedge prints may not meet this threshold, potentially reclassifying the fabric as unbleached or dyed depending on the base fabric's finishing state. Importers should obtain a fabric swatch and mill finishing record to confirm classification.
