4802.58.20.20 - Drawing paper

HTS code 4802.58.20.20 specifically classifies drawing paper. This category encompasses uncoated paper and paperboard, not produced by mechanical or chemi-mechanical pulping processes, or where such fibers constitute no more than 10% of the total fiber content. The paper must weigh more than 150 g/m² and be presented in rolls exceeding 15 cm in width or in sheets where one side exceeds 36 cm and the other exceeds 15 cm when unfolded. The "drawing paper" designation within this broad category signifies its intended primary use for artistic or technical drawing applications, distinguishing it from other papers classified at this level.

This classification is distinct from its siblings, such as HTS code 4802.58.20.40 (Bristols) and 4802.58.20.80 (Other). Bristols, while often used for drawing, are typically heavier and possess a smoother, stiffer finish characteristic of cardstock. The residual "Other" category at this level is for papers meeting the general criteria but not specifically identified as drawing paper or bristols.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on meeting all the specified physical and compositional criteria, along with its intended function as drawing paper. Users should ensure that the paper's primary purpose and physical attributes align with the definition of drawing paper to correctly assign this HTS code.
