4802.56.40.00 - Other

This HTS category, 4802.56.40.00, covers "Other" uncoated paper and paperboard that meets specific dimensional and weight criteria. These papers are intended for writing, printing, or other graphic purposes and are not produced by mechanical or chemi-mechanical processes, or if they are, such fibers constitute no more than 10 percent by weight of the total fiber content. Specifically, this classification applies to sheets weighing between 40 g/m² and 150 g/m², where one side of the unfolded sheet exceeds 360 mm and the other side exceeds 150 mm.

This "Other" classification serves as a residual category for uncoated papers and paperboards that meet the general criteria of heading 4802 and the specific dimensional and weight constraints of subheading 4802.56, but do not fit into the more specifically defined sibling categories. Unlike writing and cover paper (4802.56.10.00), drawing paper (4802.56.20.00), or India and bible paper (4802.56.30.00), this category encompasses a broader range of uncoated papers and paperboards within the defined size and weight parameters, excluding those with a primary designated use that falls under the other specified subheadings.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the practical application of this classification relies heavily on the precise dimensions of the sheets (one side exceeding 360 mm and the other exceeding 150 mm in the unfolded state), the specified weight range (40-150 g/m²), and the exclusion of papers primarily categorized by specific end-uses like writing, drawing, or specialized printing applications covered by its sibling entries.
