Fabrics with <85% cotton but ≥36.5% cotton and colored yarns in denim-style twill fall under Chapter 52 subheading 5211.42.
If certified hand-loomed
Hand-loomed twill fabrics meeting US Note certification requirements classify under 5208 for cottage industry products.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify fabric weight exceeds 200 g/m² via lab testing and provide mill test certificates to confirm compliance with HTS 5209.22.00.20
• Ensure accurate yarn count documentation using US Note formulas (e.g
• N = BYT/1,000) to avoid misclassification as lighter fabrics
• Label as 'bleached' only if optically brightened or processed per industry standards; common pitfall is entering unbleached goods here
