Overview
This HTS category, 4802.69.30.00, encompasses "Other" paper and paperboard that meets the criteria of heading 4802. Specifically, it applies to uncoated paper and paperboard, in rolls or sheets, intended for writing, printing, or other graphic purposes, and excludes paper of headings 4801 and 4803. The defining characteristic of this subcategory is that more than 10 percent of its total fiber content is derived from mechanical or chemi-mechanical processes.
Within the broader classification of "Other paper and paperboard, of which more than 10 percent by weight of the total fiber content consists of fibers obtained by a mechanical or chemi-mechanical process," this HTS code serves as a residual category for items not specifically designated as writing and cover paper (4802.69.10.00) or drawing paper (4802.69.20.00). Therefore, it captures a range of graphic papers with mechanical pulp content that do not fall into the more precisely defined sibling categories.
Since this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 4802.69.30.00 relies on the fulfillment of the general requirements for uncoated paper and paperboard used for graphic purposes, the significant presence of mechanically processed fibers, and the absence of characteristics that would place it under the more specific sibling entries. Examples might include certain types of poster paper, offset paper, or other general-purpose printing papers where the intended use is for graphics but the specific subheadings for writing, cover, or drawing paper are not applicable.
