Importers of Dyed Woven Fabrics of Artificial Filaments (≥85% Artificial Filament, Excluding High-Tenacity Viscose Rayon) paid $107K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 13.42% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.

Last updated: August 2026 dataDyed woven fabrics composed of at least 85% artificial filament by weight—covering cuprammonium rayon and other non-high-tenacity artificial filaments—serve apparel, lining, and home textile markets where colorfast, fluid-draping fabrics are valued. The US schedule carves out cuprammonium rayon into its own line (5408221000) and further splits the remaining fabrics by weight: at or below 170 g/m² (5408229030) versus above (5408229060). South Korea leads supply, with Italy and China also significant sources; imports from China may be subject to Section 301 tariffs, making origin documentation especially important for mixed-origin supply chains. Importers should confirm whether the dyeing process was performed in the country of origin claimed, as substantial transformation rules govern country-of-origin determinations for woven fabrics.

Cuprammonium rayon is produced via a distinct dissolution and spinning process that gives it unique physical properties—very fine filaments and a characteristic luster—compared to viscose or lyocell. The US schedule isolates it at the 10-digit level to allow separate statistical tracking and, in some cases, differentiated duty treatment from other artificial filament fabrics in the same heading.
For textile fabrics, US Customs generally applies a 'fabric-forward' or 'yarn-forward' substantial transformation test depending on the applicable trade program. For most MFN entries, the country where the weaving occurred is considered the country of origin; dyeing alone typically does not confer origin. Importers sourcing greige fabric from one country and dyeing in another should obtain a binding ruling or consult a licensed customs broker before entry.
