U.S. imports of bleached woven cotton fabrics, under 85% cotton, over 200 g/m² (HS 521222) totaled $13K in July 2026, traded with 10 countries.
Bleached Woven Cotton Fabrics, Under 85% Cotton, Over 200 g/m² imports of $13K in July 2026 ran 80% below the year-to-date monthly average of $63K.
Last updated: July 2026 dataBleached woven fabrics of cotton—where cotton accounts for less than 85% of total weight and the fabric exceeds 200 g/m²—occupy a distinct processing stage from their unbleached counterparts, with the bleaching treatment affecting both end-use suitability (home textiles, institutional sheeting) and tariff classification. Italy and China are the leading US suppliers under this heading, with India and the United Kingdom also significant sources. The US tariff schedule further differentiates by FAH content threshold (36% breakpoint) and by construction—sheeting, duck, and twill weave each have dedicated 10-digit lines such as 5212226020 and 5212226040. Fiber content certification and weight-per-square-meter documentation must accompany commercial invoices to support correct line selection.

Bleaching determines the heading-level split (521222 versus 521221 for unbleached), but within 521222 the 10-digit line is driven by FAH content (the 36% threshold), whether the yarn is combed, and the fabric construction—sheeting, duck, twill weave, or other. The bleaching stage is a prerequisite for this heading but does not by itself resolve the 10-digit classification.
Customs brokers generally require a commercial invoice stating fiber content by weight percentage, fabric weight in g/m², weave construction, and yarn type (combed or carded). A mill certificate or laboratory test report confirming cotton content below 85% and FAH content relative to the 36% threshold is strongly advisable to defend the selected 10-digit line.
