4810.39.65.00 - Other

This classification, HTS Code 4810.39.65.00, covers "Other" kraft paper and paperboard that are coated on one or both sides with kaolin or other inorganic substances, with or without binders, and without any other coating. These papers and paperboards are not intended for writing, printing, or other graphic purposes. The category encompasses a broad range of kraft papers and paperboards meeting these coating specifications that do not fall into more specific sub-classifications within the broader heading of kraft paper and paperboard.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, HTS Code 4810.39.30.00, is crucial. The sibling specifically covers cards, not punched, designed for punchcard machines, whether in strips or not. In contrast, HTS Code 4810.39.65.00 includes a wider array of kraft paper and paperboard products that are not solely defined by their use in punchcard machinery, but rather by their inorganic coating and general kraft paperboard characteristics.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification into this code hinges on meeting all the preceding descriptive criteria: being kraft paper or paperboard, coated with kaolin or other inorganic substances on one or both sides (with or without binder, and no other coating), and not being for writing, printing, or other graphic purposes, while also not fitting into the more specific sibling category for punchcard cards. Examples might include certain types of industrial kraft liners or specialty packaging boards with specific inorganic surface treatments.
