4810.14.11.40 - Other

This HTS classification, 4810.14.11.40, specifically designates "Other" papers within the broader category of coated paper and paperboard. These are papers and paperboards that are coated on one or both sides with kaolin or other inorganic substances, potentially with a binder, but without any other form of coating. This means that while they possess inorganic surface treatments for specific graphic purposes, they do not have additional layers like baryta or specialized sensitization for photography.

The key distinction from its sibling category, 4810.14.11.20 "Baryta coated," lies in the absence of a baryta (barium sulfate) coating. Baryta coatings are applied to photographic papers to enhance reflectivity and smoothness, a characteristic not present in this "Other" classification. Goods falling under 4810.14.11.40 are paper and paperboard intended for writing, printing, or other graphic purposes, meeting specific dimensional criteria for sheets (one side not exceeding 435 mm and the other not exceeding 297 mm, with one side exceeding 360 mm and the other exceeding 150 mm in the unfolded state) and weighing not more than 150 g/m².

As a leaf node in the HTS structure, this category does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the focus for classification within 4810.14.11.40 is on ensuring the product meets all the preceding criteria: being coated with inorganic substances (excluding baryta), intended for graphic uses, and adhering to the specified sheet dimensions and weight limitations. Examples would include certain types of high-quality printing paper with an inorganic coating for improved printability, or specialized papers for non-photographic graphic applications that meet the foregoing requirements.
