Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the fabric is dyed a single uniform colour rather than printed
Dyed knitted fabrics of artificial fibres are classified under 6006.32.00, while 6006.44.00 is specific to printed fabrics.
If the fabric is knitted or crocheted to shape, such as a garment blank
Heading 60.04 covers knitted or crocheted fabrics of a width exceeding 30 cm, containing by weight 5% or more of elastomeric yarn or rubber thread, which may apply if the jersey has stretch properties.
If the fabric is made up into t-shirts or singlets
Made-up garments of knitted fabric are classified in Chapter 61, and t-shirts of cotton are classified under 6109.10.00, but if of artificial fibres, they fall under 6109.90.00.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Confirm that the rayon is an artificial fibre (e.g
• viscose) and not a synthetic fibre, as synthetic fibre knitted fabrics are classified under heading 6006.32 or 6006.34
• Provide a fibre content certificate to support classification under 6006.44.00
• If the jersey fabric is made up (e.g
• cut to shape or hemmed), it may be classified as an article of Chapter 61 rather than fabric of Chapter 60
