About HS Code 521029

This HS code covers lightweight, bleached woven fabrics with less than 85% cotton, predominantly blended with man-made fibers, and featuring weaves other than plain weave (which is covered by 521021). These fabrics offer a diverse range of textures and properties, combining the comfort of cotton with the performance characteristics of synthetics. They are frequently used in specialized apparel, decorative textiles, and technical applications where specific weave structures (e.g., twill, sateen, dobby) are desired for aesthetic or functional reasons. Importers include garment manufacturers, interior designers, and industrial textile users. Exporters are textile mills capable of producing complex weaves with precise bleaching and blending. Key trade factors include the specific blend composition, the intricacy and consistency of the weave, the degree of whiteness achieved through bleaching, and the fabric's suitability for further processing or specific end-uses.

Products Under This Code

Common Misclassification

This code is often confused with 521021 if the weave is mistakenly identified as plain, or with 521039 if the fabric is dyed instead of bleached. The "n.e.c." (not elsewhere specified) for weaves and "bleached" are key.
