About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 4805.91.20.00, specifically classifies "condenser paper." Condenser paper is a highly specialized, thin, and porous paper or paperboard designed for use in the manufacture of electrical capacitors. Its key characteristics include exceptional purity, controlled porosity, and often a specific dielectric strength, making it suitable for interleaving between electrodes in capacitor construction.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling, 4805.91.10, which covers multi-ply paper and paperboard, as well as bibulous and wrapping paper. While both fall under the broader "Other uncoated paper and paperboard" category, condenser paper's specialized technical application and stringent material requirements set it apart from general-purpose multi-ply, absorbent, or wrapping materials.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within this specific code. Therefore, classification at this level relies on meeting the defined physical and functional characteristics of condenser paper, ensuring it is not better classified under a more general or a distinct specialty paper category. The primary determinant for classification here is its intended use in the fabrication of electrical condensers.
