Overview

This HTS category, 4802.56.30.00, specifically covers India paper and bible paper. India paper is known for its exceptional thinness and high opacity, making it ideal for printing books where space is a premium. Bible paper is also a lightweight, opaque paper, often used for religious texts and other publications requiring a high page count. Both types are characterized by their fine quality and suitability for printing, despite their low grammage.

This subcategory is distinguished from its siblings by its specific paper types. While 4802.56.10.00 covers general writing and cover papers, and 4802.56.20.00 is for drawing paper, this category is dedicated to the specialized applications of India and bible papers. The "Other" category (4802.56.40.00) would encompass any papers fitting the broader description but not falling into the more specific types.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 4802.56.30.00. Classification at this level relies on accurately identifying the paper as either India paper or bible paper, based on its characteristic properties of extreme thinness, high opacity, and intended use for printing where minimizing bulk is essential.
