4810.22.50.80 - Other

This HTS category, 4810.22.50.80, encompasses "Other" light-weight coated paper that is printed, embossed, or perforated. These characteristics are key to its classification. The paper must be coated on one or both sides with kaolin or other inorganic substances, with or without a binder, and without any other coating. Furthermore, it must be of a kind used for writing, printing, or other graphic purposes, with more than 10 percent of its fiber content derived from mechanical or chemi-mechanical processes. The defining feature for this specific subcategory is the presence of printing, embossing, or perforation.

This classification is distinguished from its sibling, 4810.22.50.44, which specifically covers "Hole-punched looseleaf paper." While both fall under the umbrella of light-weight coated paper, the sibling category is defined by a singular, functional modification (hole-punching) for specific office use. This "Other" category, conversely, is broader, including light-weight coated papers that have undergone printing (e.g., decorative patterns, educational materials), embossing (creating raised designs), or perforation for reasons other than standard loose-leaf binding.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level relies on the explicit presence of printing, embossing, or perforation on the light-weight coated paper, differentiating it from unadorned or only hole-punched variants within the broader scope of paper and paperboard classified under Chapter 48.
