Last updated: August 2026 dataPiece-dyed construction distinguishes these fabrics from the yarn-dyed counterparts in heading 521214 — color is applied to the finished woven cloth rather than to the yarn before weaving, typically producing a more uniform solid color. India leads US imports under this heading, with Italy and China also significant sources. The US tariff schedule is unusually granular here, with eleven 10-digit lines (5212131010 through 5212136090) that differentiate by wool/FAH content threshold, combed vs. non-combed yarn, and specific constructions including sateen, Oxford cloth, sheeting, and printcloth — making fiber analysis and weave identification essential for accurate entry.

Combed yarns (5212131020) undergo an additional processing step that removes short fibers and aligns the remaining fibers more uniformly, producing a smoother, stronger, and finer yarn than carded (non-combed) constructions (5212131010). The distinction affects both the duty line and the fabric's commercial positioning — combed-yarn fabrics typically command higher prices in shirting and fine apparel markets.
A sateen weave is defined by a float structure where warp or weft yarns cross multiple opposing yarns before interlacing, creating a smooth, lustrous surface. If the fabric has four or more harnesses and a float length of four or more, it is a sateen (5212136060). A plain weave interlaces each yarn over and under every adjacent yarn in a 1/1 pattern (5212136070 for plain weave). A weave diagram from the mill is the definitive supporting document.
