Overview
This HTS category, 4818.50.00.80, encompasses "Other" articles of apparel and clothing accessories made from paper pulp, paper, cellulose wadding, or webs of cellulose fibers. These are items that are not specifically enumerated in other subcategories within the broader classification for apparel and clothing accessories of paper-based materials. The key defining characteristic is their material composition and their classification as apparel or accessories, intended for wear or use as part of an outfit, distinct from household or sanitary articles.
To distinguish this category from its sibling, 4818.50.00.20, it is important to note that the latter specifically covers hospital or medical gowns and scrubs. Therefore, 4818.50.00.80 would cover other types of apparel such as disposable aprons, bibs (if not of a sanitary or household nature), decorative headwear, or other garment-like items made from the specified cellulosic materials that do not fit the specific definition of hospital/medical gowns or scrubs.
As this is a terminal or "leaf" node in the HTS classification system, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification into this residual category is determined by the exclusion of goods from more specific classifications within the same hierarchical level, provided they meet the general criteria of being apparel or clothing accessories manufactured from paper pulp, paper, cellulose wadding, or webs of cellulose fibers.
