4804.39 - Other:

This HTS classification covers other types of kraft paper and paperboard that are not otherwise specified within heading 4804, specifically those weighing 150 g/m² or less. This category encompasses kraft paper and paperboard in rolls or sheets that are not bleached and are not intended for writing, printing, or graphic purposes (as defined in heading 4802) or for sanitary or facial tissue stock (as defined in heading 4803). The key characteristics are its kraft paper composition, weight limit, and the absence of specific finishing or treatment for particular end-uses covered elsewhere.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 4804.31, which specifically details unbleached kraft paper and paperboard. While this category also includes unbleached variants, it focuses on the "other" kraft papers and paperboards weighing 150 g/m² or less, implying a broader scope that may include lightly processed or treated materials not falling under the more restrictive definitions of other subheadings within 4804.

Within this classification, further subdivisions exist to refine the classification based on the intended use of the kraft paper and paperboard. These include specific types such as condenser paper, which is manufactured to precise dielectric properties for use in electrical capacitors, and wrapping paper, designed for protective packaging. The remaining subcategory, "Other," captures all other kraft papers and paperboards weighing 150 g/m² or less that do not fit the specific definitions of condenser or wrapping paper.
