Overview
This HTS classification, 4810.29.70.35, specifically covers paper and paperboard that meets the criteria of heading 4810, is of a kind used for writing, printing, or other graphic purposes, and has a mechanical pulp content exceeding 10% by weight. Crucially, within this subcategory, it further refines the classification to include products presented in **sheets**, regardless of their size. These papers and paperboards are coated on one or both sides with kaolin or other inorganic substances, potentially with a binder, and without any other coating. They may also be surface-colored, decorated, or printed.
The primary distinction of this category lies in its presentation format. Unlike its sibling category, 4810.29.70.25, which covers the same type of paper and paperboard when presented **in rolls**, this classification applies exclusively to those cut into rectangular or square sheets. This physical form is a key differentiator for customs purposes.
As this classification represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, accurate classification under 4810.29.70.35 relies on confirming that the merchandise is indeed in sheet form, possesses the defined paper characteristics (graphic purpose, mechanical pulp content, inorganic coating), and is not presented in rolls.
