Overview
This HTS classification, 4802.57.40.40, specifically designates uncoated paper and paperboard that is not produced using a mechanical or chemi-mechanical pulping process, or where such fibers constitute no more than 10% of the total fiber content. It falls under the broader category of "Other paper and paperboard, not containing fibers obtained by a mechanical or chemi-mechanical process or of which not more than 10 percent by weight of the total fiber content consists of such fibers," and further narrows to "Other, weighing 40 g/m² or more but not more than 150 g/m²." The defining characteristic for this particular subcategory is its specific dimensions: in an unfolded state, one side measures 965 mm and the other side measures 635 mm.
The primary distinction between this subcategory and its sibling, 4802.57.40.85 ("Other"), lies in the precise dimensional specifications. While both fall under the same broader classification for uncoated paper and paperboard within a specific weight range and fiber composition, this code is for paper of a defined rectangular size (965 mm x 635 mm), whereas the sibling code captures all other uncoated paper and paperboard meeting the preceding criteria but not conforming to these specific dimensions.
As this classification node is a leaf node, it does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is concluded at this level based on the material type, weight, fiber content, and the precise dimensions of the paper or paperboard. This ensures accurate tariff application for uncoated paper and paperboard used for writing, printing, or other graphic purposes that meets the specified weight and fiber criteria and is presented in the exact dimensions of 965 mm by 635 mm.
