Overview
This HTS classification, 4810.29.10.35, specifically covers paper and paperboard that is coated with kaolin or other inorganic substances, with or without a binder, and has no other coating. The paper must be intended for writing, printing, or other graphic purposes, with more than 10% of its fiber content derived from mechanical or chemi-mechanical processes. Crucially, this category applies to such paper when it is presented in rectangular (including square) sheets where one side exceeds 36 cm and the other side exceeds 15 cm in the unfolded state.
This specific designation distinguishes it from its sibling category, 4810.29.10.25, which covers the same type of coated paper and paperboard but exclusively when presented in rolls. The distinction hinges entirely on the physical form of presentation: sheets with defined dimensions versus continuous rolls. The size parameters for the sheets are critical for accurate classification.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification at this level is determined by the precise physical characteristics of the paper (coated, fiber content, intended use) and its presentation as sheets meeting the specified dimensional criteria, distinguishing it from paper presented in rolls.
