El Salvador leads US imports under this heading, with Malaysia and Pakistan also among the top suppliers; China is the fourth-ranked source and subject to Section 301 tariffs. The US schedule subdivides by form: piece/bolt (5513410020), sheeting (5513410040), printed-pattern goods (5513410060), and other constructions (5513410090), making the physical form of the import a classification factor alongside fiber content.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
A 'dyed' fabric has color applied uniformly across the entire piece, while a 'printed' fabric has a design or pattern applied to the surface using ink or dye in a localized manner (e.g., screen printing, digital printing, or roller printing). CBP evaluates this based on the fabric's visual and physical characteristics; a fabric with an all-over uniform color is dyed, while one with a repeating or non-uniform surface design is printed.
The 10-digit HTS lines under 551341 distinguish between piece/bolt form, sheeting, and other constructions, but these distinctions primarily affect statistical tracking and may affect quota or visa requirements under textile trade agreements rather than the base MFN duty rate. Importers should confirm current treatment for each specific line with a licensed customs broker, as textile-specific provisions can vary.
