Last updated: April 2026 dataBleached, dyed, printed, or otherwise finished woven fabrics of jute and related bast fibers — excluding flax, true hemp, and ramie — serve decorative, craft, and specialty industrial markets that demand more processed material than standard burlap. India remains the leading supplier even for these value-added fabrics, with China and Italy also notable sources, reflecting both large-scale South Asian processing capacity and European niche demand. A single 10-digit line (5310900000) covers all non-unbleached variants, simplifying classification relative to the unbleached subheading but requiring importers to confirm that the fabric has indeed undergone a finishing step beyond raw weaving.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Any processing step beyond the unbleached state — including bleaching, dyeing, printing, or surface coating — places the fabric under 531090. Importers should obtain a processing certificate from the mill confirming the finishing treatment, as the distinction between unbleached and other is the sole classification criterion separating these two subheadings.
At the 10-digit level, 5310900000 is the only line, so there are no further US schedule subdivisions by width, weight, or construction for non-unbleached jute bast fiber fabrics. However, importers should still verify that applicable trade-remedy measures — such as Section 301 tariffs for goods of Chinese origin — are accounted for in the duty calculation.
