Printed Cotton Satin Scarf Fabric from China

This lightweight printed satin weave cotton fabric, containing over 85% cotton and weighing under 200 g/m², is ideal for making scarves and shawls. It falls under HTS 5208.59.20 due to its satin weave (other than 3- or 4-thread twill), printed finish, and specified weight and composition. The smooth, lustrous surface is achieved through the satin weave structure.

Import Tips

Verify satin weave structure via lab testing or manufacturer certification to distinguish from twill, as misclassification to 5208.59.40 incurs different duties

Provide accurate weight declaration (post-scouring) and printing process details to avoid reclassification under unprinted headings like 5208.49

Include country-of-origin certificate confirming >85% cotton content, as blends may shift to Chapter 52 subheadings for mixed fibers
