Chapter 52 covers cotton and cotton blended woven fabrics, including cotton yarn, cotton woven fabrics, and woven fabrics of cotton blended with other fibers. This chapter does not include cotton knitted or crocheted fabrics (Chapter 60) or cotton apparel (Chapters 61-62). Cotton woven fabrics are further subdivided by bleaching state, weave structure, weight per unit area, etc. Heading 5208 covers cotton woven fabrics containing ≥85% cotton, further subdivided by bleaching state (unbleached, bleached, dyed, yarn-dyed, printed) and weight per unit area (≤100g/㎡, 100-200g/㎡, >200g/㎡) and weave structure (plain weave, twill, etc.). First 2 digits 52 = cotton and cotton woven fabrics; digits 3-4, 08 = cotton woven fabrics containing ≥85% cotton, weighing ≤200g per square meter; digits 5-6, 21 = bleached plain weave fabrics, weighing ≤100g per square meter. The 5th digit 2 indicates bleached, and the 6th digit 1 indicates plain weave with weight ≤100g. This product contains ≥85% cotton, weighs ≤100g per square meter, and is a bleached plain weave fabric, fully conforming to the description of 520821. The adjacent code 520811 is for unbleached plain weave ≤100g, and 520822 is for bleached plain weave 100-200g, so it is classified under 520821.

Product Name: Fill in the product name, such as bleached cotton plain weave fabric Composition Content: Fill in the cotton content percentage, which must be ≥85% Weave Structure: Fill in plain weave or twill, etc. Bleaching State: Fill in bleached, unbleached, etc. Weight Per Square Meter: Fill in the gram weight, unit g/㎡, must be ≤100g Width: Fill in the fabric width, unit centimeters Brand: Fill in the brand name, or 'None' if no brand Processing Technique: Fill in the weaving method, such as woven Product Name: Bleached cotton plain weave fabric; Composition Content: 100% cotton; Weave Structure: Plain weave; Bleaching State: Bleached; Weight Per Square Meter: 80g/㎡; Width: 150cm; Brand: None; Processing Technique: Woven. Gram weight unit mistakenly declared as ounces per square yard, leading to classification errors Bleaching state mistakenly declared as unbleached, affecting subheading classification Cotton content not reaching 85% but declared under 5208, should be classified under 5209, etc.

Classification basis: 1) Cotton content ≥85%; 2) Weight per square meter ≤100g; 3) Bleached; 4) Plain weave fabric. All four conditions must be met simultaneously to be classified under 520821. If the gram weight is >100g, it is classified under 520822; if unbleached, it is classified under 520811; if cotton content is <85%, it is classified under 5210, etc. 520811 Unbleached cotton plain weave fabric, containing ≥85% cotton, ≤100g/㎡: Different bleaching state, 520811 is unbleached, 520821 is bleached 520822 Bleached cotton plain weave fabric, containing ≥85% cotton, 100-200g/㎡: Different gram weight, 520822 has gram weight >100g and ≤200g 521021 Bleached cotton plain weave fabric, containing <85% cotton, ≤200g/㎡: Different cotton content, 5210 series contains <85% cotton, mainly blended with synthetic fibers 520921 Bleached cotton plain weave fabric, containing ≥85% cotton, >200g/㎡: Different gram weight, 5209 series has gram weight >200g/㎡ Is the cotton content ≥85%? Is the weight per square meter ≤100g? Is it bleached? Is it plain weave? Is it a woven fabric?

If cotton fabric contains 80% cotton and 20% polyester, which code should it be classified under? With cotton content <85%, it should be classified under subheadings such as 5210 or 5211 under Chapter 52, specifically determined by gram weight, bleaching state, and weave structure. For example, bleached plain weave ≤200g/㎡ is classified under 521021. What should be done if the gram weight unit is filled in incorrectly during declaration? If already declared, promptly apply to customs for correction. Incorrect gram weight units may lead to classification errors, affecting tax rates and regulatory conditions. It is recommended to carefully verify before declaration. What regulatory documents are required for goods under 520821?
