2402.20.90.00 - Other

This HTS category, 2402.20.90.00, encompasses cigarettes containing tobacco that do not fall under the preceding classification. Specifically, it serves as a residual category for cigarettes made with tobacco that are not primarily wrapped in paper. This includes, but is not limited to, cigarettes that may be encased in other materials or constructed in a manner that deviates from the standard paper-wrapped cigarette.

The primary distinction of this category from its sibling, 2402.20.80.00, lies in the wrapping material. While 2402.20.80.00 specifically covers paper-wrapped cigarettes, this category is for all other tobacco-containing cigarettes that are not paper-wrapped. The classification hinges on the absence of paper as the predominant outer casing.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is determined by whether a cigarette containing tobacco is paper-wrapped or not. If it is not paper-wrapped, it falls under this "Other" designation, requiring careful consideration of the specific materials and construction if ambiguity exists regarding the wrapping.
