Overview
HTS Code 4802.58.60, described as "Other," encompasses uncoated paper and paperboard that does not meet the specifications of headings 4801 or 4803, and is not hand-made. Specifically, this category applies to paper and paperboard, in rolls or sheets, weighing over 150 g/m², where the fiber content is primarily chemical pulp or has a minimal percentage (not exceeding 10% by weight) of mechanical or chemi-mechanical pulp.
This classification is distinguished from its sibling, 4802.58.50.00, which is exclusively for basic paper intended for photographic sensitization. The scope of 4802.58.60 is broader, covering a range of uncoated papers and paperboards used for various graphic purposes beyond photographic applications, provided they meet the specified weight and fiber composition criteria.
Within this category, further subdivisions exist to address variations in material composition. Subcategories 4802.58.60.20 and 4802.58.60.40 differentiate based on the presence of cotton fiber. 4802.58.60.20 applies to products containing 25 percent or more cotton fiber by weight, while 4802.58.60.40 covers all other papers and paperboards falling under this broader classification that do not meet the cotton content threshold.
