4811.90.90.80 - Other

This HTS code, 4811.90.90.80, serves as a residual category for paper and paperboard that does not fit into more specific subheadings under heading 4811. It encompasses a wide array of products that are coated, impregnated, covered, surface-colored, surface-decorated, or printed, and are presented in rolls or rectangular sheets. The "Other" designation signifies that these items have not been classified under the preceding, more narrowly defined categories within 4811.90.90.

To differentiate this category from its siblings, it is crucial to consider the specific characteristics outlined in those codes. For instance, 4811.90.90.10 specifically covers tissue papers with a basis weight not exceeding 29 g/m² in sheets. Similarly, 4811.90.90.30 is designated for direct thermal coated paper, and 4811.90.90.35 applies to paper in sheets with specific dimensional and ruling criteria. Therefore, 4811.90.90.80 would apply to all other coated, impregnated, or decorated papers and paperboards that do not meet the precise definitions of these sibling categories.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. Its classification relies on thoroughly reviewing the physical properties and intended use of the paper or paperboard product, ensuring it aligns with the general scope of heading 4811 while distinctly not falling under any more granular classifications. This includes items like specialty decorative papers not covered by specific ruling or printing criteria, or coated papers with unique finishes or treatments not otherwise enumerated.
