Last updated: May 2026 dataUnbleached woven fabrics containing less than 85% cotton by weight and exceeding 200 g/mยฒ are classified here, with the US tariff schedule subdividing them by wool/fine animal hair (FAH) contentโspecifically whether the non-cotton fiber component is 36% or more, or less than 36%โand further by construction type such as duck, twill weave, and sheeting. Italy leads US import supply for this heading, followed by Pakistan and Japan, reflecting both premium European fabric sourcing and South Asian commodity-grade production. Importers should note that the combed versus non-combed distinction within the high-FAH lines (e.g., 5212211010 vs. 5212211020) affects classification and can influence applicable duty rates. Correct weight documentation (g/mยฒ) and fiber content certification are essential for accurate tariff-line determination.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page โ verify before relying on it.
The US tariff lines under this heading split at 36% by weight of wool or fine animal hair. Fabrics with 36% or more FAH fall under different 10-digit lines than those with less than 36%, and within each group, combed versus non-combed fiber construction creates further subdivisions. Accurate fiber-content lab testing is critical before filing entry.
The US schedule calls out duck, twill weave, and sheeting as distinct construction categories within the lower-FAH group, alongside a residual 'other' line. Importers should match the fabric's weave structure to the correct 10-digit line, as misclassification between, for example, duck (5212216040) and twill weave (5212216060) can trigger audit risk.
