Last updated: July 2026 dataPlain-weave polyester-cotton fabrics that have been piece-dyed after weaving — with polyester staple fiber under 85% by weight and a maximum weight of 170 g/m² — are a widely traded input for apparel and home textile manufacturing. China is the dominant supplier to the US market, with El Salvador and Mexico also significant sources; imports from Mexico may benefit from USMCA preferential treatment depending on yarn-forward rules of origin compliance. The US schedule distinguishes among piece/bolt form (5513210020), sheeting (5513210040), printed-pattern dyed goods (5513210060), and other constructions (5513210090). Section 301 tariffs apply to Chinese-origin shipments, making origin diversification a recurring consideration for sourcing teams.

No. Yarn-dyed fabrics — where individual yarns are colored before weaving — classify under the 'different colored yarns' subheadings (heading 551331 for polyester plain weave). HTS 551321 applies specifically to fabrics that are dyed as a whole piece or bolt after weaving, not to fabrics constructed from pre-colored yarns.
USMCA generally requires textiles to meet a yarn-forward rule of origin, meaning the yarn used to weave the fabric must originate in a USMCA country for the finished fabric to qualify for preferential treatment. Importers sourcing from Mexico should verify that the polyester and cotton yarns used in production meet this requirement before claiming USMCA preference.
