HS Code 5407.84 – Fabrics, woven; of synthetic filament yarn, containing less than 85% by weight of synthetic filaments, printed
HS code 5407.84 is the 6-digit subheading for fabrics, woven, of synthetic filament yarn, containing less than 85% by weight of synthetic filaments, printed. It is used for printed polyester-cotton dress fabric, floral pattern synthetic blend shirting, geometric print poly-viscose fabric, printed synthetic upholstery fabric and digital print blended curtain material.
What HS 5407.84 covers
This category encompasses woven fabrics crafted from synthetic filament yarns, where the synthetic content is less than 85% by weight, and the fabric has been printed. Unlike yarn-dyed fabrics, the patterns and designs on these textiles are applied to the surface after weaving, using various printing techniques like screen printing, digital printing, or roller printing. These fabrics are highly sought after in the fashion industry for their vibrant designs and cost-effectiveness in producing intricate patterns, as well as in home decor for decorative textiles. Key importers are often countries with robust apparel manufacturing sectors that then export finished garments, such as Vietnam, Bangladesh, and Turkey, alongside major consumer markets like the European Union and the United States. Leading exporters include textile manufacturing hubs like China, India, and South Korea, which possess advanced printing capabilities. Traders must verify the exact fiber composition and ensure the fabric is indeed printed, not yarn-dyed or piece-dyed, to avoid misclassification. The versatility of printing allows for a vast array of aesthetic possibilities.

Codes often confused with 5407.84
Common mistake. This code is often confused with 540783 (yarns of different colours) or 540782 (dyed) if the printing process is not clearly identified as the primary method of pattern application. It's crucial to distinguish between printed designs and patterns created by weaving different colored yarns.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
