4804.49.00.00 - Other

This HTS classification, 4804.49.00.00, covers "Other" uncoated kraft paper and paperboard. Specifically, it applies to kraft paper and paperboard that weighs more than 150 g/m² but less than 225 g/m², and which does not fit into the preceding subcategories within heading 4804.4. The "Other" designation indicates that it captures kraft paper and paperboard within this specified weight range that are neither unbleached (4804.41) nor bleached uniformly throughout the mass with a high percentage of chemically processed wood fibers (4804.42.00).

To classify goods under this heading, one must first confirm they are uncoated kraft paper or paperboard falling within the 150-225 g/m² weight range. If the material is unbleached, it would be classified under 4804.41. If it is bleached and meets the specific fiber content criteria, it would fall under 4804.42.00. Therefore, 4804.49.00.00 is the residual category for kraft paper and paperboard within this weight bracket that does not satisfy the conditions of its siblings, such as being colored in the mass, having specific surface treatments not constituting coating, or having a different fiber composition beyond the narrowly defined bleached category.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. This means that once goods are determined to be uncoated kraft paper or paperboard weighing between 150 g/m² and 225 g/m², and do not qualify for the more specific preceding classifications, they are definitively classified here. Examples might include certain types of brown kraft paper used for wrapping, packaging, or industrial applications, or specific grades of kraft paperboard with moderate strength characteristics that are not unbleached or specifically processed as described in 4804.42.00.
