Last updated: August 2026 dataFinished — printed, dyed, or yarn-dyed — acrylic and modacrylic staple fiber woven fabrics at or above the 85% weight threshold are classified here, with the US schedule offering construction-specific lines including 5512290005 for yarn-dyed fabrics (excluding blue denim and jacquard), 5512290010 for blue denim, 5512290015 for poplin and broadcloth, 5512290020 for sheeting, 5512290025 for printcloth, 5512290035 for duck, 5512290040 for satin and twill weaves, 5512290045 for oxford cloth, and 5512290090 for other constructions. Mexico leads US supply under this heading, with Spain and Italy also significant sources, reflecting the concentration of European specialty acrylic fabric finishing capacity. The finish state is the key distinction from heading 551221, and importers should ensure commercial invoices clearly identify whether goods are piece-dyed, yarn-dyed, or printed.

Importers need to identify: (1) the finish type — yarn-dyed, piece-dyed, or printed; (2) the weave construction — plain, twill, satin, oxford, duck, or other; and (3) whether the fabric is a specialty construction such as blue denim or printcloth. Each combination maps to a specific 10-digit line, and misidentifying the weave or finish can result in an incorrect statistical suffix and potential CBP examination.
Imports from Mexico may benefit from USMCA preferential treatment if applicable rules of origin are met. Goods from Spain and Italy enter as EU-origin products and are not currently subject to Section 301 tariffs, though importers should monitor any active Section 232 or antidumping proceedings that could affect textile inputs from those origins. Always verify current CBP and USTR guidance at the time of entry.
